Well more bloods given today this morning for tumour markers. Will have to wait for results. Then visit to the VISS Clinic this afternoon met with nurse and consultant. Loads of questions, measured weighed and now referred for CT Scan and follow up appointment in three weeks. The VISS clinic is a trial clinic of 12 months of duration to speed up treatment where possible full name Vague and Indeterminate Signs and Symptoms Clinic deals with medicine, cancer and emergency care clinical group. They have said all tests I have had are clear. Waiting for this mornings ones. X-ray is clear. I am it appears very healthy except for the excessive weight loss so will wait for ct scan. Will keep you informed.

That sounds like loads of test but good results, weight loss a worry if you are not trying. Hope you get a solution. Running takes lots of calories for slim or
People. Good luck with next set of test and results. Hope you get answers you need
Thanks Grannytobe if I could bottle how I am doing it I would be rich. Will just carry on with nagging doubt hanging around until I get a result
Hope they get to the bottom of your weight loss issues . Good luck 😊😊🤞🤞
Thanks Buddy34 even they were shocked at a 1 1/2 stones since middle of February
Stupid question maybe but could you be losing the weight due to running or is that not the case
I've not heard of a viss clinic, but it sounds like exactly the right place for you right now. They also seem to be pretty efficient at running your tests. Stay with it, keep posting 💐
Hope you get an answer soon, not knowing what's going on must be very hard, but hopefully, it will be something easily fixable
Oh argh, think I missed the initial post about this. 😟 All that uncertainty sounds unsettling, and hope it gets resolved soon & happily. 🤔 Meanwhile your excellent HM idea sounds great. Really well done for that, and I love the timing. You’ve done ever so well with this running lark! 🎉👏🏼🎉
Thanks Granspeed did seem to fall at the right time, and I guess the marathon was not to be in order that I could do this one. There maybe nothing wrong but it’s better to be safe in case there is.
Hope you have the answers you need soon. Best wishes.
Hoping you find what is causing your weight loss quickly. Good luck xx
Look after yourself. Sounds like you have landed in a great place for getting to the bottom of things. I don’t go with normal rules when it comes to diagnostics 😂. It took them ages to find out I was hyperthyroid as I wasn't losing weight with it like most people . I hope they get to the bottom of it really soon. Rfc xxx
🤞🏻 for you. In fact it sounds very similar to what I went through earlier this year. Started running April last year but at the end of January I realised it wasn’t my jeans that were stretching. Went to the gp who immediately ordered a blood test which I got done that day. Got s phone call from the gp at 8 the next morning 😱. I had a shadow on my lung and a raised cancer marker in my blood. To cut a long (for me) but in fact very efficient and relatively short time I’d had CT scans and even a PET scan (was radioactive for 12 hours! ☢️) only to be told everything was fine! I asked about the raised cancer marker to be told in fact it was marginal!! I felt fine throughout but imagined the worst. As I said 🤞🏻 and I’m thinking of you.
Thanks Sybilw waiting on the tumour marker blood results and waiting to find out when CTScan is. All other tests have been clear so hopefully nothing but want to know for sure.
That’s the thing. I didn’t THINK I was ill but began to fear I really was. Hope it’s the same for you.
