I have/had both of these same issues.

Headaches - Do you work in front of a computer all day? Look away frequently. Constantly focusing on a monitor will cause eye strain and in turn can cause headaches. Also, being tired seems to exacerbate this problem.

Tired all the time - I really think you aren't getting enough sleep. What is your routine as it gets late into the night? If you're watching movies, playing poker or other games then that is probably the reason. Determine when you should go to bed to get closer to 7.5 - 8 hours of sleep per night. About an hour before this time start to wind things down and just read a book or something. Doing things that constantly stimulate your mind will keep you awake much longer.

Yep, I'm in front of the computer all day and most of the time at night. My poker time is usually late at night for an hour or two right before I go to bed. I'm married and just bought a new house, so that seems to be the only time for poker because I like to spend time with my wife when I get home and then we go to the gym or do whatever else we need to do.

I'm meeting again with my doctor tomorrow, so I'll see what he thinks. Maybe I'm just getting old and need more sleep than I used to. I just really hate going to bed so early. It seems like such a waste of time, even though it obviously isn't.
