Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

This covid had made a major difference in my life, and I got covid a year back. The problem is it has made me obese. It not only makes me obese but also makes me inactive and increases my anxiety and mental stress. I have reduced my personalized hours in my private places and with friends. It took me to depression and taking pharmacological treatment to my sickness physically and mentally had made me obese. Coronavirus obesity is an exceptional one that I cannot accept, and how should I return to normal? Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understood your concern about your obesity and depression. The obesity may be due to drugs you are taking now for depression that need to be reviewed by your doctor or myself. And also, you need to cut some snacks in between food. You need to do some exercises also. If possible, kindly upload your reports and current medications details for better understanding and treatment advice to be reviewed with your reply soon for prescription of drugs and better treatment advice.

Regards.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
