First of all I went back to my GI doctor and he flat out said that he thought I had AIDS and that I might have the wasting syndrome because I am just losing weight and have decreased appetitie for no reason. The thing is I've never had intercourse or performed oral on anybody ( I told the DR. that too). But I decided to check up on the wasting syndrome and it mentioned diarehhia and weakness which I do not have at all.

I've noticed over the last couple days that when I drink water I start to feel really weird. And one time my body temperature dropped to 96.6 for hours and I felt like I was freezing. My urine for the last several months comes out rather slow. There is no pain or anything. I've had my urine tested once and it came back normal. Whenever I see my doctor he looks at me in a real suspicious way (as if he thinks I am taking drugs, boozing, starving myself) That is a REAL negative belief to have especially since he doesnt' even ask me any questinos about his suspicions. He only looks at me really strange. I did do some research and I thought I might have pancreatitus. The protein drinks I've been drinking have been showing up in my BM. The same exact vanilla color and rarely I have pale stripes in my stool. There is most likely a fat/portein malabsorption problem and I am wondering WHY the GI doctor didn't do a fecal matter test??? Will he find everything with a CT scan??

Anyways after I explained to him about my non-sexualness he said that I should have a CT scan as soon as possible because he thinks it might be an organ problem. But what kind of organ problem? He didn't say! Even when I asked. Well I am a bit scared and worried that I might have cancer or some bad illness. I am having only slight pains like fullness after eating for hours, some sharp pains here and here, but most important losing weight and feeling weird after and during eating or drinking fluids. Does anybody have any idea what my problem could be? I also would like to know how everybodys CT scan (if you had one) went? Did that iodine shake taste horrible, ok or great? And anything else you'd like to tell me. My CT scan is this week too so respond quickly.


thank you for you help

P.S. Yes I've had an upper endoscopy done on me and it came back normal.

Your doctor should flat-out express his concerns instead of acting "suspicious". That does nothing but make you feel bad. He should give you the benefit of a doubt.
