Carys, Thank you for sharing your experience! Did you get all tests done as well? And what did the doctors tell you? How long did it take you for things to get back to normal? Would love to hear back.

Can someone explain me why have I lost 2 kgs recently? It seems like blood and stool test did not show anything too abnormal. Otherwise, they would have called urgently.
But I lost 2 kgs..
Before I skipped my breakfast, had a lunch for bread and used to have a heavy dinner. Recently, I try to have something for breakfast, have more food during lunch and a less heavier dinner.
Is that why I am losing so much weight? I was 68.5 kg before, and now 66.5 kg in 2 weeks.
I am crying and relating this to the worst.

Stress can make you lose weight.

Is it really just my anxiety?
Today morning I saw that my weight was 1 kg less, after 5 mins I noticed my weight was 1 kg more. Was I hallucinating I wonder.
I just found out after going to the washroom that I have blood from my anus, but then I remembered it was probably my period blood as I have my period right now. Still my mind makes me think "what if it was not your period blood but something else?"
Overthinking my mind till it explodes.
If there was something truly horrible, then blood test would have shown it, isn't?
Woke up to a bad news as well, one of my distant relatives got a brain tumor. This just doesn't help me at all.

And today I have floating stools and indigestion, but no bloating or pain.Originally Posted by glittery

Gas in stool can make them float, same if you have eaten a fatty meal. About half of mine float.
Positive vibes,

Aw Glittery. Did you go to the doctor to help manage your anxiety?
Honestly this sounds like anxiety-induced IBS to me. Sometimes my only IBS symptom is a change in stool. I know you think that googling will help, but it won't. You will read something that scares you, you are likely to then have loose stools, which will scare you, etc. It's a cycle and you need to try and nip it in the bud.
Floating stools means that you've eaten something with a high fat content as far as I'm aware. x
If you can't handle me, that makes two of us.

Also there’s a lot of daily fluctuations in weight, as you’ve seen yourself. I have read up to five pounds (just over a kilo) is quite normal throughout the day.

I will go to my doctor to manage my anxiety, especially because I always tend to overthink about every situation. In the past I have doubted my wonderful boyfriend for cheating on me, even though he is amazing as ever and there is no way he is gonna cheat. I used to overthink about the way I look and all.
Now, all of a sudden all that has turned into anxiety. I never used to have bowel issues with anxiety before. I did have urgent need to urinate before, but not such changes in my stools every single day.
Right now this is how my mind is working:
1) Pain in my back/buttocks (very mild): Sciatica
2) Floating stools and indigestion: Malabsorption
3) Slight weight loss: ^ related to Malabsorption
4) Malabsorption = some sort of scary cancer
5) Scaticia = my cancer has spread everyone in my body
I cannot stop crying... I keep thinking about having to leave my family, my loved ones. And that breaks my heart into 1 million pieces.
Thank you so much to all of you for making me feel better. I would love to hear your experiences as well.

And the reason why I suspect Malabsorption is because I am not digesting my foods properly. I see bits and pieces of what I ate (VERY GROSS I KNOW)..but I never had this!
