esther...T_MD is right...and don't let it go if you are putting on a lot of weight.

This happened to me back in 1994 after I had my son and very quickly. I was put on older medicines and many of them at once I might add.

I don't know if you saw my photo at present time, but you would never think that at one time I had weighed over 358lbs.

I went from 125lbs...never any serious weight problems to over 358lbs and I say over because I just couldn't get on a scale anymore because I felt trapped in my own body. It was awful. Not to mention some of the medicines scarred my face.

Anyway...I'm now on wellbutrin and off many of the medicines I was once on and I have lost well over 160lbs actually probably a lot more then that I've lost count.

Someone else mentioned how doctors sort of don't listen or take seriously what is going wrong, but don't let that go or whatever is really bothering you.

Good luck .
