Weight loss Prt2

I wrote a post on here at the start of the week regarding a large amount of unintentional weight loss in a short amount of time. Going from 9 st to 7st in months. I saw a gp regarding my weight and left in tears. He asked me if I had enough money to buy food! And sent me away with a peice of paper with fat filled foods on. No further testing no nothing. He made me feel ridiculous and like I was wasting his time. Told me it's probably due to low iron.

Do you have any health issues at all ? or just the drop in weight?

Can you go back and see a different gp? in my surgery there’s few not only one, if you’re eating properly a drop in weight like this is not normal, it can be caused by stress or an illness, please go back and argue for some tests. I lost 2st in 4 months recently but I was going through some massive stress and looking back think I was eating about 4 times a week only
