30M WEIGHTLOSS

  A 30-year-old male presented with a history of progressive weight loss over the past year. Symptoms commenced in November 2022 with severe abdominal pain and vomiting, initially attributed to roadside food consumption. Recurrent monthly episodes of abdominal pain, bloating, and vomiting/loose stools persisted until April. Diagnostic workup, including abdominal scan, CBP, ESR, CRP, TTG antibody, LFT, RFT, sputum for AFB, chest X-ray, Quantiferon Gold for TB, and Montoux test, yielded normal results except for elevated CRP. Ayurvedic treatment resulted in symptom improvement, but weight loss persisted. From November 2022 to April 2023, he lost 10 kgs and maintained stability at 48 kgs thereafter. CRP levels correlated with symptom exacerbations, decreasing post-treatment. Presently, he experiences diminished appetite, eating only twice daily, despite previously consuming 4-5 meals. Daily schedule and eating patterns outlined. . [27/11/23, 10:31:59] ~ A: ‎~ A created this group ‎[28/11/
