I can somewhat relate. A year ago I was on a feeding tube because my intestines have decided not to work. I was only on it for 2 months. I initially was gaining weight on it and they readjusted my calorie intake.

Yes but I lost a lot of weight due to gasteroparesis and then was put on a feeding tube for a year where they over prescribed me calories. And because of the tube, I was always in pain and inactive. So I blew up like over night and now I'm off the feeding tube but the largest I've ever been. I'm still having stomach issues so I can't work out but I can't lose the weight and no one understands why I'm so frustrated because I should be happy I'm not on the tube anymore

I’m having an issue also with so many allergies and food intolerances that it makes it difficult to follow a diet.

I also have POTS and the clinical trial is not for that but I hope it helps with my other conditions a bit. I do get so frustrated to struggle with losing weight. I also have so many allergies to food and I have MCAS so I can’t do a special diet so it makes it even harder

Yes and it’s hard but I’m currently doing a clinical trial that could potentially help me with my chronic fatigue syndrome and mitochondrial dysfunction so once the medication gets approved I should be able to do some form of exercise without severe fatigue
