Check this out: Food and Wellness 😉

The same thing happened to me a couple of times. I didn't touch a single thing. 🤷

Just go to opcija - ured opcija - forum Language (all the way at the bottom of the page) and select English. 🙂

Did you happen to get your thyroid antibodies checked too, like anti-TPO and anti-TG? If not, you should definitely run those tests just to rule out any autoimmune issues.

I’m not on any thyroid medication right now, but I just started taking Concor and I take Normabloc as needed because my heart feels like it's going crazy. 😁
Scintigraphy Results: Asymmetric thyroid gland, enlarged right lobe, relatively homogeneous radioisotope distribution. A scintigraphic "cold" nodule occupies the lateral part of the lower two-thirds of the right lobe.
Conclusion: Nodular goiter with a non-functional nodule.

Month 1 Hormone Levels:
T3 1.68 (1.1-3.1)
T4 112 (60-165)
TSH 0.079 (0.4-4.0)

Month 2 Hormone Levels:
T3 1.26 (1.1-3.1)
T4 148 (60-165)
TSH 0.021 (0.4-4.0)

Based on this report, your thyroid is overactive—hyperthyroidism. Your TSH is low. Think of TSH as the signal from the pituitary gland that tells the thyroid what to do. If the thyroid is sluggish, the pituitary pumps out more TSH to kick it into gear. But when the thyroid starts pumping out way too much hormone on its own, the pituitary shuts down the TSH production to try and compensate.

As you can see, your TSH is well below the normal range, which means you're hyper. You'll likely be put on some kind of treatment. 🙂

Dana Garcia8 said:Hey,

I'm 22 and I've been bleeding for 14 days straight, though it's just a few drops a day. No pain or anything. I went swimming the second day and had sex too... just wondering if anyone else has dealt with something like this. I'll head to my OB-GYN if things don't clear up soon...

Go see an OB-GYN. I went through something almost identical once. They gave me some pills—I think they were progesterone—took them for about five days, and then my period finally hit properly. My cycles have been a bit wonky since then.

Your hormones probably just got a little out of whack.

Then you're just a walking germ magnet. Whatever, time for a fresh shave. 😁 Just make sure you disinfect your skin both before and after you do it, otherwise some nasty bacteria might move in and cause an infection. That’s just how it works—once a pore dilates or a hair grows inward, grease and dirt get trapped inside, clogging everything up and causing these issues. It's nothing major, but it's annoying as hell.

Have you tried squeezing it? To me, it just looks like a slightly enlarged pore with a comedone inside. Or maybe an ingrown hair.

It’s working now. The great mystery of this forum is finally solved. 🤣

It’s fine during the day, but after midnight? It’s a total graveyard. 🤷 Also, if you're still using Internet Explorer, seriously—do yourself a favor and switch browsers for this site. 😁 Everything works perfectly for me except on IE; good grief, it takes a minute or two just to load a single page.

If my memory serves me right, we're talking about hydrogen here. 🙂

It doesn't even have to be that. It’s entirely possible you’re just reacting to something in the capsule ingredients themselves.

Look, I honestly think you should just go see a doctor.

Is this happening while they sleep, or what...?

It’s not that simple, because you can end up with erythrocytes in your urine regardless, and then you're left guessing whether there's actual blood present or if it's just from your period.

Nicholas Myers said:I have several reasons for doing this. First, when merging multiple threads, you run the risk of posts from other topics getting sandwiched between related ones, which breaks the continuity. It’s also much easier to manage merged posts if we ever need to split them back up later. On the Health forum, we frequently merge threads for various reasons I won't get into right now.

Furthermore, it's simply more efficient for me to work with consolidated posts. Having symptoms, complaints, and signs all contained in one single entry is far better than chasing them through several consecutive posts. It's partly a professional habit; in my day job, I prefer patient records to be centralized in one place whenever possible—it makes the workflow significantly faster and smoother.

It happens sometimes where a user describes a medical issue across several posts, and by the time they're done, some of those posts have already pushed onto the next page. That creates an annoying hurdle when you go to reply; you have to stop, scroll back to the previous page, and jump back and forth unless you end up quoting every single one of those individual posts.

There are other reasons why I merge posts, but I'll leave those out here.

I don't issue warnings or "card" users just for posting consecutively. In fact, I think I've only sent one private message regarding this, and that was only because a user was spamming consecutive posts, demanding to know why nobody was answering them immediately.

So, I hope I'll be allowed to continue moderating this way and keep merging posts as described. However, if the administration or my fellow moderators decide this practice is actually counterproductive or useless, I'll stop merging consecutive posts from the same author within short timeframes.

Nobody is complaining. If anything, everyone likes how meticulous you are. 😘

Look, I merge them when I see posts coming in close together that are clearly related. It happens all the time where someone remembers to add a symptom or a test result a few minutes later. It’s much cleaner and easier to manage when everything is consolidated in one spot.

Besides, some people are genuinely sick, and the last thing they need to worry about is some MQ. I don't mind merging a few posts a day for them.

Look, if someone drops two posts in a row and it’s not total garbage, who cares? But if you’ve got ten posts from the same person back-to-back, it actually looks a lot cleaner to merge them rather than having an entire page of a thread dominated by just one guy.

I don't usually go around handing out bans for stuff like that, and honestly, I rarely bother merging unless I'm bored scrolling through the PDF forum Help and decide to clean up a few posts that were sent within minutes of each other.
It doesn't occur to me to delete someone's posts just because they realized they forgot to add something to their previous thought.

Look, let's not get carried away here. Most bakeries use the exact same ingredients anyway. Honestly, there are plenty of shops out there, so if you don't like what one offers, just don't eat there.

Personally, I wouldn't touch anything containing meat at certain places even if I were starving for days—unless my goal was to end up in the ER with food poisoning.

I have a pretty sensitive stomach, but I haven't had any issues with Miller. I haven't eaten anything from them that actually messed me up yet, so I guess it's all relative.
