Guest guest Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Hi. My doctor's office said my latest CBC is normal and that massive, fast weight loss, deadening fatigue and shortness of breath don't need addressed. Just wondering if anyone has had this and/or knows if it's no big deal. What happens when there's no more weight to lose? I can stand another 20 pounds off. Went from a 14-16 to size 6. Normally was an 8. Had to watch everything I ate before. Now I eat anything and everything! Twenty more pounds would put me at a size zero. Not complaining, just wish the insane fatigue and inability to think would stop. Nuvigil allows me to get out of bed. I can barely keep my eyes open. Can't stand it. For months the Nuvigil helped me feel less tired. Now, nothing! Thanks for listening. Like everyone else I just want to feel better! Hope you all have a great day! God Bless!

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Dear Lori, Excuse me, but anytime a person loses a large amount of weight rapidly, any doctor worth their salt should be seeing red flags all over the place!! Click on the link below to see just some of the things that could cause the issues you are having. You probably aren't having most of them...but maybe one of them. I suggest you look at the possible causes, decide which one fits your symptoms and complaints the best, then get a referral from your doctor to an appropriate doctor that treats that illness.
