I hear ya, you definitely have some things going on that are making managing your weight very difficult. Sorry, I think I got a little frustrated with your earlier post, as I'm sure you did with mine.
I guess all you can do is keep trying and hope that some treatment/treatments will help you feel better without effecting weight gain and metabolism too much. I know, it seems like it's impossible until newer better medications are available.
So I guess metformin didn't help huh. Were you taking metformin, cytomel, and alli at the same time. If you were, then wow, that sucks that they didn't help.
I know it must be frustrating having people that don't know what they are talking about tell you what you should and should not do. I'm sure it's still frustrating when someone does know what they are talking about gives you advice.
You say you do eat well right now but didn't you say you only eat 800 calories a day, right? I really do think asking your doctor or a good nutritionist what they think would be helpful. I don't see how your brain and body could be getting everything they need on such a low daily caloric intake.
What are all the meds you are on now? Parnate and what else? Sorry I'm just curious.
Well all I can say is try hard to not give up, there is hope, for you, and Maxime.
I have gained up to 35 pounds at one point a few years ago after being on Zyprexa and Depakote. So I can empathize and relate to what you two are experiencing to a degree.
Like I said, hang in there and try not to give up hope!
