Well pheochromoctoma, carcinoid or any malignancy ruled via CT scsn which is good. Having fainting episodes though so looking more like dysautonomia, maybe a type of POTS. I think i surprised the nurse, 40 year old men dont faint that often!! Its so true the degree of illness is way out of proportion to the degree of abnormal tests etc. Having zero appetite is very frustrating as I guess not getting salt in, or anything in, makes symptoms worse!! Any duggestions to get food in to prevent any further weight loss would be good. I look ill too, no disguiding it here. Frustrating…
