This all started in 97 with a two year long headache and rapid weight gain. Dr's had no explanations about the headaches and told me to stay out of the frig. I'm not a snacker and in fact as the years have gone on I have had no appetite and forget to eat until my husband comes home and asks if I have eaten today. I am usually on the go and food is in the way. In 1995 I started drinking coffee and unfortunately replace food for creamered coffee. I have cut "way" back on the coffee and don't have it everyday and also try to only have 2 cups for the day. My headaches went away after 3 months of Amma Massages. I now only get one once in awhile. I am constantly fatigued, my left shoulder has very limited use before it has pain that makes me sick, my left hip is now becoming an issue especially if I have sat very long. I had my gallbladder out Dec 31, 2008. I thought maybe some of my energy would return afterward but it is as bad or worse than before. I have a Dr. that I do see, but we have got nowhere. She has ran all kinds of tests and everything comes back normal and "great". If I do any kind of physical activity, I pay for it for the next week. I am soooooooooo frustrated. I have read about adrenal fatigue, and I fit a bunch of those symptoms, I also fit a bunch of the thyroid symptoms. I grew up in North Central Idaho and there are alot of thyroid cancer as well as other nasty things as a result of the fallout from the Nuclear Tests they did in Nevada. (Thank you very much...govt.) I went from 126 to 184(at almost 40) in less than a year and my highest weight has been 192. Where should I start looking for answers? Dr's don't seem to have the time and they want lots of $'s to help figure it out.
No appetite but gained lots of weight
