Hi all, I know the real answer is " go see your GP", but I have been and she wasn't worried, and I feel too stupid to go back. Wise mumsnetters, please diagnose me!
I have lost my appetite. Can't even look at food, been living off 500-1000 calories a day, and seems to be getting worse. Lost almost a stone in 10 weeks or so. ( from 9st10lb to 8st 10lb) Feel full and bloated after a bite or two, mild nausea but no vomiting, no pain, no bowel changes. Bloods all fine ( FBC, U&Es, LFTs, TFTs) however they were done before the weight loss. I started on fluoxetine recently and I know it can affect appetite but it's now been 10-12 weeks, surely it should get better by now?
I have also had 2 episodes of very minor bleeding between periods, and do get night sweats.
GP wants to test for IBS, h pylori and scan my gallbladder ( tender spot under my ribs when she palpated). She said my cervix and ovaries seem fine. It's not depression/ stress related, as I'm in a really good place now, and tend to overeat when I'm stressed.
Am I worrying about nothing? Should I wait it out? I am trying to eat little and often, and have carbs and full fat things, but just CAN'T force myself, I seem to eat less every day. I feel so weak and dizzy now, it's starting to affect my life.
