Hello Doctor, Thanks for your reply. My illness is that I don't feel good, feel kind of weird. I fell a little dizzy. My doctor did couple blood tests. And couldn't figure out what the problem was. I went to see a Chinese Medicine Doctor. She said my problem is mal-nutrition. She might be right. Ever since I had the teeth implants, my diet was bad, I couldn't chew real well, And I lost 25 lbs since. I'll try to eat more. Do you agree with her? Let me know what you think. Thanks. Regards,XXXX

Brief Answer: Reduced nutrition can be a reason... Detailed Answer: Dear XXXX, Feeling "Not good", weird and dizzy can occur due to multiple reasons. If you haven't been eating well for long time, it may be a reason. But there are other conditions which could be causing you the troubles. I hope your doctors have excluded all other reasons. If they have, then perhaps improving your nutrition, practicing a healthy lifestyle and good sleep will help you improve from this illness. At this point of time, with only unwell, weird and dizzy as the history I am unable to list other differential causes which your doctor needs to look at. Therefore I sincerely hope your doctor is right. Add a better diet, include protein and vitamin supplements, practice exercise, yoga and other form of meditation and make sure you sleep well. Hope this helps. Regards
