Complete thyroidectomy & meds
Hello everyone ! I had a complete thyroidectomy in August. Initially, I had been taking the generic Levothyroxine. I immediately had horrible symptoms of crushing depression and extreme fatigue. My doctor boosted me up to 125 mg and there was no difference. I looked online and read that some people

Diagnosis dead end and worsening cyclical pain
But told me that ¼ of
chronic
pelvic
pain
has no explanation. Otherwise, my next steps are a referral to gastro, potentially with a proposed colonoscopy, and/or a
chronic
pain
specialist. Has anyone else had any similar experiences and either did have endo?

New meds.
Thanks for all the comments in my previous post. I'm speaking to the doctor in the UK on Friday. Gabapentin or Pregablin is suggested by many of you which I now know are pain killers. I wouldn't say I'm in pain just discomfort that stops me sleeping. Is it still right to ask for these. In the UK dopamine

Silly Mistake
Hi, I’ve been gradually reducing my preds, was down to 6mg, decided to try 5.5, after being on 6 for about a month. All was going well, I tend to take my dose along with a nerve painkiller around 5/6am. I had mistakenly put a one in my box, instead of a five, which I only noticed after two nights.

chronic neck pain and headaches
I suffer with
chronic
neck
pain
and headaches on a daily basis. I use heat treatment, weekly physio/manipulation therapy, neck stretches and currently take 500mg of Naproxen twice per day. I don’t know what more I can do and am at a loss as to what the problem is

Celecoxib / Celebrex
Does anyone have experience with taking Celebrex longer term? I've found it seems to do a great job of controlling inflammation for me. I'm wondering how long I might be allowed to take it. A question for my doc of course, but my next appt is a month away so I thought I would turn to the seasoned

blighted ovum
I had a miscarriage in September 2022. I had a blighted ovum miscarriage (empty sac, no fetal pole). I found out I was pregnant again in January, supposed to be due September 2023. Due to previously having a miscarriage, they asked me to come in for a vaginal ultrasound at 6 weeks. They told me that

Hair texture changes? Hyper or hypo?
What condition(s) makes hair go: a) from wavy/curly to straight? b) darker at the back of your neck? c) grey/blonde -> brazzy/orange? Hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism? Possibly other conditions?
