This has never happened before and I don't know what the problem is. This is my 4th time through the game. On my inventory screen, lower left corner it reads 796/550 the figures on the left usually are about 250 to 450 . Every time I take a feather portion or use a feather scroll the numbers on the left side of the slash gets lower and usually it the numbers on the right side of the slash are suppossed to get bigger (it's like they got reversed some how)..My active effects show nothing negative..All my attributes are in the green. I really need someones expertise to sole this problem.. Thanks

The number on the left is the weight of everything you're carrying.

The number on the right is your maximum carry weight.

If the number on the left is higher than the one on the left, You're carrying more than you can carry, hence 'over encumbered'

Drop some stuff.

You are correct..I've been thru everything several times,I don't see anything different that I'm carrying. Usually when you take a feather potion , the numbers on the right rise and get higer than the numbers on the left...Just the opposit is happening, I can't figure it out..I think the problem is elsewhere??Thanks
