I know I should listen to my own advice but every time I have had anxiety in the past I have lost weight even though I am not trying. I think we burn more calories off with the anxiety without knowing it. I worry every time it happens and my friend reminds me that it happens every time but I always manage to convince myself I am losing weight because I am so I'll and dying.
As you know I am struggling with the dizziness.
Are you taking iron tablets for the anaemia?

It sounds like ibs symptoms with worrying. I had an endoscopy and sigmoidoscopy and nothing was found and they just told me ibs. My stomach makes all kinds of weird noises when mine plays up.
What has your gp said about iron deficiency?
