Is this cancer ?

[chickenfeed90]

I'm losing weight every day. I have now lost 5lbs since 3rd Dec. No dieting, no exercise, the weight does not corelate to my eating and drinking what so ever.

I have had thyroid cancer in the last year but have had the all clear. I now take levothyroxine every day and have done for a year.

I've had changes to my bowl habits in the last 2 weeks, but nothing that is not especially new for me.

I have raised this with my GP and have been sent for a stool and blood samples tomorrow.

I am very scared and worried.

I am 51, female.

Given your very recent history of cancer, please just wait to see a doctor.

What’s your Levo dose?

I take 125, and I do find my bowels are a little loose (which I don’t mind at all!)

I'm on 125, I can be loose too, not uncommon for me even before I started levo. I cam also be constipated and stools too large to push out

I mentioned this on your other thread, but have them check your pancreas. Faecal elastase test and ideally they’ll send you for an abdominal/pelvic CT scan. The levo can impact your pancreatic function.

Feeling so low tonight and worried. I also feel fragile and weak ..physically I'm either, its mind over matter. A bit like telling someone to carry a bag very carefully as it contains eggs . .. so they tiptoe with the bag .. except there are no eggs in the bag
