Trouble with Dose
I’ve had a thyroidectomy since 2014 started on 50mg. Then eventually had to adjust dose up to 125mg over 7 years as the TSH kept creaping up. My Endocrinlogist is scratching her head for 4 years I was balanced. My freeT3 and freeT4 were both in normal. During covid I could not do “In Person” visits so

After the BCR and the ADT vacation – All the tests results are in – it's curtain time - what comes next – what to do next ?
A quick background review … Started out as 'I can't pee ! - a TOTAL urinary blockage. Dateline March break- 2017. Spent 4 months in and out of emergency wards with out of control UTI's, a catheter for 4 months (which I was taking care of with NO CLUE as to how to manage it) and no urologist or

Several variables and unknowns~
Almost 4 weeks ago, my rheumatologist started me back on Actemra weekly. I felt better without it, but he feels I need it as we will start tapering down from 12mg prednisolone, which I'm sure my body will appreciate (I hope). The same week I started the Actemra, my GP had also had me try just 20 mg

Why might my left ankle and foot be swelling and not both feet?
I never have issues with swollen ankles and feet period not even when I've been on them all day which I'm most certainly have not been recently. It's been several days and I have noticed that my left ankle and foot is most definitely swelling. There is no discomfort and no pain. I have not twisted it

Diuretics and Ibrutinib
Wondering if anyone is on diuretics and Ibrutinib, lasix, Aldactone, HTCZ, and your thoughts on this. Started diuretic for blood pressure, drinking 80 ounces of water a day, definitely flushing out cells, but not I am staying hydrated

Confused me!
I came to know about this
LASIK
eye surgery in Boston (https://www.avantlasikspa.com/avant-
lasik
-experience/), where you get the vision corrected just like you finish a day's spa treatment. I'm not sure of this and haven't been able to make a decision since. I came across this on the internet.

Diuretics and BTK Inhibitors
Wondering if anyone is on diuretics/water pill such as lasix or aldactone, while taking ibrutinib/ BTK inhibitors. Wondering how this affects hydration. Confused if we drink lots of water to flush out bad cells, or to stay hydrated. If we want to stay hydrated, seems like it would be difficult while

Life update
I had an appointment to get evaluated for
lasik
. Big waste of time. Even though I asked ahead of the appointment if MS is a problem and they said probably not, at the end of their 15 minute film it said autoimmune disease disqualify you. I never even saw the doctor. I just left.

Just got diagnosed with Lupus nephritis
Hi there. Summary: Just recently got diagnosed with Lupus nephritis after a biopsy. My life has changed. I'm constantly tired. And my body just feels different. I need to put much more effort into anything I do and even simple tasks are harder than usual. And my concentration is kind of. In addition

Doctor's can help
Yes see your Doctor right away. Perhaps they can get an electronic compression machine to help lower the swelling. My mum's legs oozed liquid she suffered waiting for someone to help her. She was in her 80s they gave her lasix in an I V . Her kidneys were overwhelmed and then the rest shut down. If she

Diuretics and Creatinine Levels
I was Aldactone 300mg and Lasix 120mg which controlled my Ascites but caused my Creatinine to rise to 1.53 and BUN 53 so my Doctor reduced Diuretics to 100 / 40 bringing Creatinine back to normal. Now my does is being slowly increased. Has anyone else experienced this, thanks in advance. Note I am

Diuretics or Paracentesis
Hello, I am curious to know if anyone has experience of lowering tense (6-9ltr) ascites through diuretic and bringing it under control. And if yes, how long it took and which diuretic/dosage was used. My father is currently on Torsemide 10MG once a day only and he has tense ascites (I guess about 7ltrs

Inconsistent swelling
Hi everyone! This is my first time posting here. Please be easy on me! Anyway, I am a 40 year old girl with stage 4 cirrhosis. I really don't know how to wrap my head around it. I find myself feeling completely not believed or something? Did anyone else experience this? But, physically the most

Potassium and RLS
I have severe RLS. It has mostly been under control for awhile after years of different meds. All of a sudden, for about 2 months now it’s like I don’t even take any medicine. It’s been a nightmare. And I haven’t been able to understand why? Last night out of desperation I was looking at all my meds,

Water Retention
I'm new to this at stage three but I have a 13 pound weight gain in a month and my legs and abdomen are swollen and very puffiy. The nephrologist I had didn't think it was my kidneys, but put me lasix. He sent me to a cardiologist to see if it was my heart, it isn't, but the cardiologist said not to
