Self sabotage
Some of that will be
water
retention
but some won’t. As I crammed another ginger nut into my mouth last night, I was thinking “you need to stop, you don’t even like ginger nuts” but it was like being an automaton. I couldn’t stop. Any ideas other stress eaters have found useful?

Confused about starting dose of Levothyroxine.
I have so much
water
retention
in my legs that I have swelling behind the knees that is putting pressure on my nerves so I’m having constant burning pins and needles and some nerve pain. I’ve decided to give Levothyroxine a trial. I have been prescribed 25mcg.

Thyroid
I have swollen legs everyday and high
water
retention
. I feel like utter shit. I didn't know if reverse t3 could be the culprit? I've never had it tested. All my iron,folate,b12 and vit d are optimal now as I've worked on these and take supplements for them. B12 is high now.

water

Falling asleep after taking meds in the morning
I seem to need more t3 as I recently lowered it only by a smidgen and put on 2 kilos on in 2 weeks, feels like
water
retention
. When I up that t3, I lose some
water
weight and my stomach is flatter, but then I get jitters, insomnia, anxiety, hunger etc.

Weight loss with PCOS & underactive thyroid
Over the last year she has lost a few pounds and done really well, sometimes it comes back which is likely
water
retention
. This really gets her down and I want to help her but have no idea how. I want to add this is not anything that concerns me, to me she's actually perfectly fine.

Why does Pred need to be taken with food? Do they cause water retention and weight gain?
If Pred really causes
water
retention
i.e. weight gain, what medication/OT counter can one take to drain off the water safely and which would not provoke bad night cramps? Pronoun She/her 80 uk

Jakafi/Weight Gain
Some papers say it has to do with
water
retention
within the cells or something, others say it has an opposite ozempic effect, whereby the signal that tells your body you are full, does not kick in. I would like to try to understand what I can try to do to combat the gain. Full disclosure here.

Help with results
(Normal range: 9.5 to 22.7) I didn't actually go to the doc thinking thyroid or diabetes, I was asking for a diuretic as I felt sure the weight gain was
water
retention
for MS medication I take.

Flare up, abdominal swelling!
I am wondering is this is part of the inflammation /
water
retention
etc. It is rather worrying. Does it happen to anyone else. I had upon Consultant's advice reduced Hydroxy to 300mg (weight related) but now she has asked me to go back to 400mg for 6 weeks to see if flare goes.

Father has had PBC for 16 years - Odd complications since COVID?
The drs have suspected
water
retention
as he's having trouble peeing more then 4 - 5 times every 24 hours and has had a few water infections. He also has issues with bowel movement, however the DRs have said this is most probably side effects from the sheer amount of pain meds hes on.

What to do?
My weight is increasing slowly too which I am putting down to a culmination of both
water
retention
and constipation. I also take Edoxaban 60mg daily. The increase in weight and constipation are a nuisance but I am unsure whether I need to see my GP or put up with the situation.

I'll sleep on it .... the depression has eased recently but I have ballooned in size (I think in part due to

), I'm still sleeping much more and getting tingling in my hands, along with a few other things - but let's not concern the so called professionals with such silly matters like

lithium and bipolar 2
These were shaking hands, urination more frequent, weight gain,
water
retention
through the body and a general feeling of being below par, but not depression.

Declining GFR with no cause found--Mystery Needs ideas
Symptom-wise, I feel as good as ever—none of the issues like
water
retention
, fatigue, or shortness of breath. I'm a 72-year-old male, so right now, what I'm left with is my kidneys are just old and tired! My diet is pretty clean. No red meat. Lots of veggies.

Help interpreting results: Told TSH levels normal when they're higher than the normal range
This month I saw my GP as I have developed really bad
water
retention
in my legs & arms & feel absolutely dreadful. He sent me for some thorough bloods, I was told over the phone they were all normal but they've been put on the app and they don't look normal to me.
