Suggest Remedy For Sudden Weight Loss And Dizziness
I have lost approx. 50 lbs in the last 4-5 months, i have done nothing different nor have i had any abnormal stress levels. No increase in excersize nor decrease in food intake. I had a fasting cbc with glucose test and it came back 119. I have feelings like im crashing, specially upon standing, kinda like im on the verge of passing out and increasing blurry vision. But the dr i went to says every thing is fine, but i dont feel fine. what do you think? am i crazy?

Hello,
Thank you for trusting HCM.
If the weight you lost is more than 10% of your body weight within a period of less than 6 months without any change in diet or increased exercise level, please refer to your doctor requesting proper general checkup including blood workups, colon examination etc... Its important to know what is causing such sudden weight loss.
Stay well.
