Urgent answers needed :help:
Help!!! I have been having multiple symptoms and not sure whats going on and neither are the doctors.
My anni date is Aug 2003, I done very well at first and lost 135 lbs. Now I have gained around 80 lbs in a year and having other health problems.
I stopped lexapro a week ago and have lost 9 lbs, but I have been having alot of unexplained problems even before stopping the lexapro which more than likely are somehow linked to rny. So I thought I would come straight to the experts and see what you think.
Symptoms:
Very light headed-like never before(fell after standing last night)
fatigue
right side pain(docs say possibly liver problems)
chills with no fever
bad sudden headache
some confusion and or having to think a little harder about things to figure it out
unexplained weight gain but lost 9 lbs in a week(not complaining about that part)
hypoglycemic(insulin resistance)
alkaline phos- high
folate serum-high
B-12- low(290)
Has anyone out there had some of these or all of these symptoms and figured it out what the problem is. I know that low B-12 can cause alot of these problems but with my blood work being off I am not sure if thats the whole picture.
Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated I'm totally lost with this.
Thanks to the experts out there!!!

I use to take lexapro, they took me off of it during my surgery and I'm not going back on it. I plan to find another antidepressent without the side effect of weight gain. All I could say about all of this is be sure to take vitamins and b-12. Dehydration can cause headaches and confusion. I think your Dr needs to evaluate you again. Good luck hope you start feeling better.
