I Have Been Feeling Exhausted And Numbness In Leg

I am a 23 year old female and for the past 3 weeks I have been feeling exhausted.. I have not been doing anything out of the ordinary that I would not normally do.. I have an increased appetite and strangley I constantly get a numbness like pins and needles in my right leg..This occurs whilst walking, standing or sitting.. Idont think these things are all related but they have all happened around the same time frame.
