I know eating is so difficult in the condition we suffer. I have to force myself each day to eat something nutritious at least twice per day. I have basic things like a hard boiled egg or eggs prepared some way. Oatmeal or cream of wheat with some milk, a banana and a multivitamin. We have to eat or matters get much worse. Hamburger or thin cut steaks, lamb chops with a salad, either cooked asparagus or broccoli with so.e garlic, butter and salt and pepper. Have to stay hydrated with juice cut with water that I'll sip throughout the day. I know how awful it is you're not alone. But please start forcing yourself to eat and drink malnutrition creates all kinds of problems and makes our symptoms much worse so we have to force ourselves to. I can't say anything about medications because none have ever worked for me and I believe long-term use of any Benzodiazepines have brought me to this horrible condition. I still take .5mg 2X 12 hours apart and am holding there because cutting out any Benzodiazepine cold turkey and not weaning over a slow long period of time is always very dangerous even though the medicines like in my case don't do much I don't stop taking them regularly because they can cause such havoc like seizures coma and even death. I hope you and your doctor can figure something out that will help you of course. Always in my prayers🙏
