What Complications Does One Undergo Due To Lack Of Eating?
Hi, I m living my life as usual, sitting in class, at work, or in front of my TV/Computer at home when, all of a sudden, my vision blurs and I begin seeing black pixels that start at a small focal point and rapidly expand over almost all my vision. My head starts feeling heavier and heavier, and at a point I feel like I could just fall off of my chair anytime soon. This happened scarcely in the past before, but it s becoming a bit too frequent for my likings nowadays. I d like to point out that it isn t a problem due to lack of eating. Hope to hear from you soon.

Hello,
Thank you for trusting HCM.
Please refer to an endocrinologist and ask for hormonal check up on GH, IGF, ACTH, Blood sugar level, and accumulative blood sugar level. with this work up done your doctor will be able to determine whether this anomaly is due to a hormonal imbalance leading to improper metabolism leading to those symptoms.
best regards,
Dr. Ahmad
