I got on the scale and I lost six pounds. I thought I gained around four pounds. It doesn't make sense.The other night I had two pints of ice cream. My g.i. doctor said he couldn't help me with my constipation.He said just to use what I have been using phillips. Now I have been using apple vinegar cider and olive oil I told him about the discomfort but no pain or blood. I think I told him about the indigestion. He didn't suggest an endoscopy. He thought I might have IBS. I don't know what to do. I don't understand the weight loss. Yesterday I had delicious french fries and a hamburger. My stomach didn't get upset. It doesn't get upset with chinese food or Indian food or coffee. It is just when it is empty. I will see what I weigh in two weeks. It just doesn't make sense. I can't remember and have to recheck what losing weight is a symptom of. It is something serious.
I guess I should start straightening up the apartment now but I think I am going to first look up about weight loss.

I might go back to the higher dose of the antidepressant and see if it is what made me jittery.

Weight loss with bloating should be evaluated by a health care professional because, according to Merck Manuals, they are red-flag symptoms for serious disorders, including gastrointestinal cancers and ovarian cancer. Additionally weight loss and bloating may be caused by irritable bowel syndrome, celiac disease, ulcer or gastroparesis.
