When I first started having the symptoms I actually lost 5 pounds, I guess because I hurt so badly. But since the Elavil I have gained about 8 pounds. But we can hang in there. I hope your doctor can help you, just remember we are here for you. I know it can get depressing, but just think, you can come here and talk about your poop. lol.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 ... Please don't be jealous. I got this way after my brain surgery. I was very sick and now I find it literally impossible to keep weight on ...I used to weigh 170. Missy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
