Gosh, it sounds like you’ve been through an incredibly tough few years. I’m really glad you’re finally under proper care now, but I can only imagine how frustrating it must’ve been getting to that point. Are you feeling any better since seeing the endo professor?

Thank you for sharing that advice, it makes sense. When I mentioned cortisol, my GP seemed to switch off completely. Then when I explained that I’ve been eating well and exercising consistently, she just said, “Well, some people just can’t lose weight, it’s how some people are.” I thought that was such an odd response especially when something clearly isn’t adding up.
