I'm surprised they did that. I'd call your doctor and talk to them about the symptoms you are having with feeling hungry all the time. Though it may just take some time for your body to get back to a new normal and then you will lose the weight you have just gained. Try to stay on as healthy a diet as you can.

Talk to your doctor about your medication and what you can do to lessen the effects from stopping it. Were you weened off of the medication? Try to watch what you are eating and exercise regularly.
