Hi I am getting worried about weight loss.
Since November I have lost 4lbs, I have also been on holiday for 2 weeks and got back today hoping I would gain weight but I haven't. On holiday I ate and drank a lot and normally gain around 4lbs but I gained nothing.
I was put on iron tablets 3 weeks ago as was showing iron deficient on blood tests. The Dr asked them about weight loss and my bowels, I mentioned the weight but he didn't seem concerned.
I stopped taking the iron as thought it was upsetting my tummy but since then I have still been gettin stomach cramps and am getting worried that this and weight loss is due to a cancer.
I have a repeat blood test tomorrow and doctors Thursday but am getting more worried. I am 30 female, weigh 9st 1 which is low for me I can't remember a time I was this low in weight.
