What Causes Sudden Wight Gain Along With Fatigue And Memory Loss?
Hello, I am so scared out of my wits. I gained some unexpected weight quite rapidly. I felt tired, sluggish, and suffered memory loss, I mean I would forget what had just happened 30 seconds ago. After going to my OBGYN for a check-up, I told him about most of my symptoms. They ran tests and found that I have hypothyroidism. They put me on two medications. Now the doctor says that I will begin to lose weight and not gain any if I eat right. Still, I am reading horror stories about people having to wait months for results. All the while, they continue to gain weight. Please, Please help me. Thanks, Ms. Richardson
