For about the last 6 months I have had a loss of appetite with weight loss. I have been on various medications for pain relief for a disc problem in my back. I was constantly feeling nauseous and had a lot of stomach pain that I stopped all medication and have been off it for over a month now. I still get stomach aches, sometimes severe almost immediately after eating, I pretty much get some degree of pain each time I eat and drink (coffee etc). The nausea is not as bad now but I have little appetite and feel full after just a few mouthfuls of food. In the last 6 months I have lost about 9kg's. I have very little gas and do not have a problem going to the toilet. I am in pain almost constantly with my back and do not sleep well because of this, could this have any bearing on how I am feeling. I would appreciate any help you can offer. Thankyou.
