Sudden Weight Gain but Not Pregnant

[joeshell]

I'll be 46 at the end of this month & just moved to a new state so I don't have the luxury of knowing any doctors.  In the last 1-2 months I suddenly gained 40 + lbs & look pregnant.   That seems to be where the weight all is.  A urinalysis proved negative for pregnancy on Monday & with my 3 grown kids I did not gain this much weight &/or so fast.  I just look pregnant & feel "full - heavy - tired & short of breath" most of the time.  Tomorrow I go for a Pelvic ultrasound w/a full bladder.  The day after I am scheduled for an Abdomen ultrasound - w/fasting.  Any idea what we are looking for or what could cause this?  I can barely eat because I feel so full & yet it's lately that I've gained the most weight.  I am not in pain, I just feel miserable - like over due.  When I asked at the doctor's office what could cause this & what we are looking for they said 'a cyst, tumor, or cancer'...... I would kind of like a bit more information if at all possible.  In the last week I gained another 10lbs & I know this can not be good or keep on.  

Thanks,
JoeShell

Weight Gain But Not Pregnant
Did you have an answer to this question?  I'm experiencing the same symptoms.  I've started working out at least 30 mins a day and I'm still not losing weight.  I've gained so much after a surgery I had and I'm only eating oatmeal, veggies and yogurt.  I can't understand why I'm not losing weight (and am unsure why I gained so much in the first place).  HELP!

Without saying too much, I completely relate to you. I would love to see how you managed the adrenal fatigue you mention. I have been skinny most of my life and i have some very similar stress related issues. I have recently been piling on loads of weight and very quickly. I eat next to nothing and the weight just keeps piling on. Please tell me more. I look forward to hearing from you. thank you so much for sharing on your personal life like that.
