A member asked:
Bowel movement went from x2 a day to 2 a week with rapid weight gain and difficult to hear bowel sounds is this a thyroid issue?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Seems a little quick: Hi Sorry to hear that you've been struggling recently with your health. Your symptoms sound like they manifested a little too fast to be due to thyroid issues. Would be useful to have a little further discussion with a doctor either on HealthTap or in your local area to see if we can pinpoint another cause. Rapid weight gain over 2 weeks is usually due to water weight. Hope this helps
