Can anyone help me ... nothing really to do with menses

Ok. So I did phase 2 in January and went from 185 lbs to 159 lbs. But I did not do phase 3 (bad me) just ate regularly for a few weeks, in which time I gained back around 12 lbs. Then went back on hcg and went back down to 159 in Feb/March. Since then I have gained all the weight back plus some. I am currently up to 194 lbs. I hate it. I don't blame hcg because I know that I should have done phase 3. So it's my fault.
Now, the problem is that in June I started having pregnancy symptoms (nausea, emotional, oh - and breast milk) but the two tests I did where negative. After a few weeks of noticing that the milk was still there I went to the doctor and the first thing she figured was that it may be a tumor (in the pituitary). She did blood work but all my hormones are normal (with a tumor some hormones should spike). I should also mention that the lactating hormone was normal and so was my hcg level. I am doing an MRI on the 14, I will have the results on the 28 of Aug. But, she says that it will most likely show nothing since the hormone tests showed nothing. Then she wants to send me to a neuro surgent (can't seem to spell that) to figure out why I have milk when I'm not pregnant and have not nursed in a year.
I did not tell her about the HCG (I told her that I had lost 37 over the course of a year - truth, and that I had now gained 30 lbs back in less than 4 months - truth). We are in Canada and I don't know how well she would take the HCG thing (since it is illegal without a prescription here).
So - my question to you is this - anyone else with BREAST MILK? Please spread the word to all the hcg users here so that I can get an answer. My hope is that it is HCG related and I can stop worrying, go back on HCG, lost weight and do phase 3 right this time so I can keep it off. Being back in the 90's feels temporary to me.

Eve, Hi, I was wondering what ever happened to you. You just stopped journaling and we missed you!! I'm so sorry you are having these issues. My gut instinct tells me that you should tell the doctor about the hcg. The truth is always the best and even though she/he may not approve, it's always better to let them know so they can take everything into account to diagnose you properly. They aren't going to arrest you or anything!! They'll probably just scold you. Anyway, I don't think the hcg should have anything to do with these symptoms that you are having but you can never know so it's always better to be truthful. I hope everything will work out fine for you and I will pray for you.

I agree with sofarsogood. You need to tell the Dr. I also don't think it could have anything to do with the hcg. I would think it would of started while you were using it and not months later. I haven't had any of those things happen to me. I really don't know what else to tell you. Keep us updated on how your doing and let us know what the Dr finds out.
