loss of appetite and lots of weight

Subject: loss of  appetite and lots of weight

Forum: The Mental Health Forum

OVER THE PAST YEAR OR SO I HAVE HAD NO APPETITE AND I HAVE LOST ALOT OF WEIGHT. I WAS NOT OVERWEIGHT TO BEGIN WITH AND NOW I AM REALLY VERY SMALL. I AM ABLE TO EAT, BUT FREQUENTLY HAVE NAUSEA  AND LOOSE STOOLS. I HAVE HAD A BATTERY OF TESTS THAT SHOWED A SMALL HERNIA AND ACID REFLUX, ALONG WITH SUDDEN PAROXMAL VENTRICULAR TACHYCARDIA AND PREMATURE VENTRICULAR BEATS. MY DOCTOR TOLD ME TO GET HELP FOR ANOREXIA WHICH MADE ME FEEL AS THOUGH HE THINKS ITS ALL IN MY HEAD. I LEFT FEELING LIKE A NEUROTIC FEMALE, TOTALLY EMBARRASSED, AND THEN MAD. I HAVE ALWAYS HATED TO GO TO THE DR., AND NOW  I DONT KNOW WHETHER TO GO WITH MY USUAL "IGNORE IT AND IT WILL GO AWAY" APPROACH  OR WHAT. I GUESS MY QUESTION WOULD BE : IS THERE SOMETHING THAT WE COULD BE MISSING TO EXPLAIN THIS?
