The muscle weakness and pain in the thighs, the doctor says is the result of protein deficiency I thought I was eating enough but apparently I am not
I was happy with my blood report but must mention it did not talk about protein I have never done protein tests.
I wonder if protein deficiency results in weight loss but I have not Anyway I wil have to trust the doctor and do something to increase my protein consumption He prescribed protein powder for which I have placed an order.

Our body is so complicated that symptoms can mean so many different things I will give this powder a try and see if it works Else I will go for tests.

@allknowing That is true; we never expect anything, but it just happens. I remember my mother, who was never sick for the majority of her life, but she did have rheumatic heart disease when she was younger, but she grew up pretty healthy and slim all her life until cancer struck out of nowhere and took her life.

@rsa101 Caner never sends warnings It is only when it is far advanced that one comes to know about it
Sad your healthy Mom was a victim of cancer despite her good health

I'm glad you talked with your doctor about your problems and hope the protein powder helps correct those problems. 
Vegetarians often need help getting enough protein in their diets.

I will give it a try and see if it helps. Even doctors sometimes can flounder
