Hi, is it normal for weight to fluctuate? 4 days ago I was 68.40 kg now today I am 67.40 kg its still within range for my height and age. But is that classed as rapid weight loss? Another thing I'm taking as a symptom ! Another thing the nurse at my work did a blood sugar level test on my finger (pin prick) and the blood came out quick and quite a bit that she even commented but it stopped instantly as soon as I put pressure on it what else could this mean? Easy bleeding? I've been fine for a few days now I'm right back to square 1 😩
Weight fluctuates all the time, you weigh yourself in the morning you will weigh less than you do during the dag. 1kg is not a huge fluctuation. Regarding the blood, again i think this is not something to worry about, if it stops as it should i dont think there is any concern!
Thank you, I mentioned the blood to my mum as well and she said "did it stop straight away" which I answered yes and she told me to stop overreacting then. Thank you for your reply !

It depends on many things, if you have just eaten, or have you not been to the toilet, weight can also be caused by fluids have you been drinking, whatever you drink. Keep an eye on your weight, although remember to wear the same clothes, and weigh yourself at the same time of the day, you can have a couple of pounds different, a variation each day so a kilo sounds about right, try not to worry
With regards bloods, if the blood stopped flowing easy, nothing to worry about, say a couple of mins. I am the the other way, getting blood out of a stone, a real problem. Sometimes I feel like a hedgehog by the time they find a vien
