No Appetite and scared.
Posted , 2 users are following.
I am an older lady in her 70s and finding it hard to cope. I have messaged on here before but again i need reassurance. I lost my husband two years ago, very suddenly in his sleep. It was a complete shock as he had not been ill at all. In fact we had been out for a meal together that night. At the beginning of last last year, I lost my appetite I had various tests etc , which all came back clear the doctor put it down to grief and anxiety.Now over a year on and fur the past 3 months I have absolutely no appetite at all again. It has followed a similar pattern to last time but I am so worried that the doctors have missed something. I do suffer from health anxiety and it’s much worse since my husband died. The thought of food makes me feel nauseous and I cannot face a full meal. I’m eating little bits here and there but I’m so worried my health is going to suffer. I have been back to the doctor and have had blood tests but other than my thyroid tablet needing to go up a bit. Everything was clear. Please does anyone have any words of reassurance for me. I am so worried I have cancer.
The Dr seems to think it will come back but it hasnt and I just dont feel I can carry on like this.
Thankyou for reading this.
