Why Would I Never Feel Full After Eating? Is This Symptom Of Cancer?

default
Posted on Tue, 17 Jan 2023
Question: Why would I never feel full after eating? I have read some things that if you have cancer it can eat away your nutrition. I know that sounds odd but I’ve had symptoms and I guess have myself worried. I just don’t understand why I’m eating and why I don’t feel full and it seems like in the morning I weigh less. I’ve never had a weight issue and I’m 6 foot and have been weighing 202 but used weigh around 226. I got a kidney stone 6 months ago and stopped drinking soda and only water

Brief Answer:
It does not sound like cancer

Detailed Answer:
Hi again,

It is difficult to say why you do not feel full after eating. Weight loss associated with cancer is usually just one of many symptoms of cancer.
Tiring, night sweats, and local symptoms depending on the cancer (cough, bloody sputum for lung cancer, or bloody stools and a distended abdomen for colorectal cancer) may also be present if you have a cancer. Your symptoms do not indicate cancer. You should have blood tests for endocrinological disease, e.g. hyperthyroidism. This condition is often accompanied by excessive sweating, tremor, palpitations, loose bowels, and irregular menstration.

Hope this helps.
