- I have had unusual jaw pain the past week. I've never had any problems with my, now my jaw feels like someone has shoved it to the right and it is making my whole lower jaw hurt. I do have one wisdom tooth left and not sure if that is affecting it...
- So I finally had a decent doctors apt, well actually two since I saw both my neuro and my internal med doc on the same day! I managed to convince him (internal medicine doc)to do a sleep study, which ironically my neurologist laughed at and was...
- I am going back to the doctor at the end of the month and pleading to see an ENT for my massive sinus infection and the cysts in my sinuses and then maybe try to get a compassionate reassignment from where we are stationed. The biggest thing for me...
- I know that sounds like a weird question, but as I listen to all of us it seems (even the ones who have gone into remission) that our symptoms get worse the longer we have this. Not just the headaches but the other conditions. I have feel like...
- So I guess I am no longer hyperthyroid. After a year being in that state my body corrected itself (I was never put on any meds). He said he will keep an eye on me but thinks it was a random bought of thyroiditis or something like that although he...
- Has anyone ever heard of copper toxicity leading to hyperthyroidism? I was doing some research on something else and it popped up and that led to more research which got me thinking and I am really wondering now.
- Ok I'll try and keep it short. When I was diagnosed with IIH they said come off birth control. So I had the paragard IUD put in December 2011. All was well with it no problems. To date I still have no problems with it. However in June 2012 I...
- This heat is killing me! I know most of you have problems with storms and such but I don't for me it is the nice hot days that do me in. I am sure it has to do with fluid retention, kind of like being pregnant in the summer and your ankles/fingers...
- What is up with doctors cancelling or rescheduling or just not being on time lately. I had an issue with my Internal Medicine doctor a few weeks back and ended up not being able to be seen. And then this week I had my neuro apt which I was looking...
- I am trying to find a previous post that was put out I think in the fall of 2012 about how they are finding the studies for PTC and weight may have been skewed. I don't remember all the details but the gist of it was they had basically only...
- For those of you who have gone vegan or at least cut way back on your animal products, how do you avoid the massive amounts of Vitamin A found in vegetables? I'm trying hard but anytime I eat anything with a lot of vitamin A in it I get horrible...
- I was doing so good at the end of December, I had lost 15 lbs and my symptoms had almost completely resolved and my HYPERthyroidism had also almost corrected itself without medication. They were talking about dropping my Diamox down to 250mg/day...
- Sorry I haven't been around much life has been busy, very busy!Anyway I saw my endo again in December and he said that "lets face I've been subclinical for 6 months now and everyone who is subclinical for that long becomes clinical so lets start...
- I don't understand their urgency now in wanting to start treatment. I am still subclinical, the very very limited symptoms I did have of hyperthyroidism have disappeared but now the doctor said "well since it's been 6 months since you first tested...
- I went to take my medicine (Diamox) tonight and realized with the craziness of the holidays I hadn't taken it last night or this morning. I have never missed a dose and usually can't go more than an hour or so past a normal dose without having the...
