I feel like I’m losing control of my body - what is wrong with me?!

I’ve always been naturally curvy, around a size 10. My happy weight is around 9.5-10 stone.

I gave birth to my son in 2020 and had terrible postnatal depression, and ballooned up to a size 22. I’ve never been one to gain weight, so I don’t know where it came from. I don’t eat great, but I don’t eat super badly, and I don’t eat enough to justify the amount of weight I’ve gained. Not in denial, just the truth!

Fast forward to 2022 and I now haven’t had a period in six months, I am heavily fatigued all of the time, always feeling so, so tired.

The past couple of days I’ve had horrendous stomach cramps, and I just feel like I’ve lost control of my body. I feel like there’s something wrong but I don’t know what.

I’ve had bloods done and it’s not a thyroid issue.

I know MN isn’t a doctor but I can’t get an appointment for weeks and I’m really worried and feel like I’ve completely lost control of my once healthy, active body.

Any thoughts or advice? This is getting me so down.

Plsd you’ve finally got a diagnosis so you can start treating & finding ways to best manage it.
