NO ONE ever in my life said anything to me about weight loss.. I do not even look overweight, ever in my life!! BUT... I don't care how I look, I've felt terrible for almost 1.5 or 2 yrs. surely something is the matter with me. So I research for a year or more on my own. I READ READ, I take notes, I find info on computer and elsewhere. IF not one is going to help me with the symptoms I have I have to research on my own! My confidence in the medical world had really diminished in the last 2 yrs.! sigh...
