Are you experiencing unexplained weight loss or just difficulty gaining weight?
Different health issues the last couple years started a cycle of weight loss and difficulty gaining it back. I was back up to a decent weight but went back down again. I had blood work done a couple weeks ago and everything was WNL. A couple years ago I saw an oncologist and he cleared me. The next thing will be a GI consult to see if the issue is malabsorption.
I am 66 and weigh about what I did when I graduated from high school...which was two months before I was hospitalized for malnutrition. I am starting over. sigh
