What Causes No Loss In Weight After Dieting And Swollen Ankle?

Hi I have had a lot going on with my body lately and I am concern that my problems may be related. I had a very unexpected (I have two boys no problems) misscarriage 3 weeks ago. I was 14 weeks pregnant. Since then I have started the south beach diet, I have am amost finished with phase one and have not lost any weight. In the past I have lost 14lbs in this amount of time. I now have a swollen ankle that happened out of the blue and its hard to walk. Please let me know if I may have something more serious that could be causeing all of these.

Hello,

You need to consult a doctor immediately for physical examination, probably it may be due to water retention in your body. You may need to require diuretics and maintain good health.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
