UGH
That's so common. My G.P told me it wasn't possible to gain more than 5 lbs on ZYPREXA!
He also said the same thing your P.Doc did about eating more when you feel better.
I've heard that quoted by many people.
When I was on Effexor I gained 25 lbs so fast I was astonished. The P.Doc at the hospital told me it wasn't the Effexor, and then asked if I had cream in the coffee I was holding.
I stopped effexor and saw her again 3 months later. She said "You've lost so much weight, how did you it?" "I stopped the Effexor"
What I'm trying to say, is, when it comes to weight gain and medication, it seems very few Dr's have a clue, and they would much more like to believe that the patient is somehow weak.
