I am writing concerning my wife,she has always been a very thin, and active person, and never had a weight problem, until about 2 years ago, when she started putting on weight, tho not rapidly but as she has fibromialgia and in on meds for this as well as for other conditions for which she sees our family Dr.on a very regular basis. Every time she tries of talk to Dr. concerening the weight gain, his responce is always "you eat to much". She has had almost every test, but nothing shows up, I am not real knowledgeable concerning medical things, but she has doubled her weight in last 2 years, I feel that there is something growing (tumor?)in her abdomin. Why can't they do and ultra-sound of her tummy area(which is where most weight seems to be located), and how can I convince the Dr.to do this test?
Some time ago I saw a medical tv documtary (sp) where 40 lb. tumor was found in a woman, who's circumstances were much the same as my wifes. I need someone to listen to me and tell me am I crazy or could there be something to be done?
