Severe weight loss!
6 months earlier i started having stomach issues, since then i have been getting weight loss with visible body mass reduction, so far if you see the white line near waist, i was that fat, now i look thin and malnourished!
6 months back did an usg, which showed a gb polyp 2.9mm which the doctor said to ignore and repeat usg after 1 year.
Then i still had stomach issues persistent, in dec i started having stomach burning issues and gnawing pain. Then in January did an endoscopy which showed antral gastritis and h pylori, did a triple therapy withh ppi, seems my weight reduced further and after that also i had symptoms, did another endoscopy showed the same.. got into another triple therapy. After second round of abx, i am feeling better and my symptoms reduced, but i am not able to gain weight even though i am eating enough, i am worried about cancer because of this and the existing polyp :(.
Please help me, i do wnt to gain weight!
