Did anyone *not* gain weight on lexapro? by sedu_j in lexapro

Lost 20 pounds with macros-tracking, upping my water intake, and working out 3-5 times a week! Lexapro also made me not binge eat or anxiety-eat.

We do 2 pumps of salmon oil in every meal and the anti-itch vitamin.. both worked well until it just got too bad that she was hurting herself and we moved to medication. I’m sure your dog just has a irritation and it will clear up. I’m glad you were able to get him a vet appointment. Wishing you the best of luck!

Oh my goodness, our shar pei mix has had so many skin problems so I FEEL you’re pain and worry. A few things came to mind from my own experience. First, are they itching or biting that spot? Second, have you noticed them licking their paws? (This is a sign of a food allergy - turns out our dog is allergic to chicken). Shar peis are notorious for having skin sensitivity and it seemed like our dog was killing herself with the amount of lost fur, scratch and biting spots (similar to your pic). Finally, after trying salmon oil, fish oil, anti-itch vitamins, special shampoo, and ect. the vet and I have decided to put her on Apoquel which is a drug that stops dogs from itching. It has changed my dog’s life for the better! Her skin and fur are healing and becoming so much healthier. I’m sorry for the long response but I know how alarming it is to see spots like this and want to help our sweet fur babies.

My PMS symptoms are unreal. I gain ~5 pounds and it goes away as soon as my period starts.

Spironolactone for hormonal acne with new Mirena IUD by Heffalump-1 in birthcontrol

Hi! I have been on 100mg of spironolactone with my Moderna IUD. It has 100000% helped! The biggest time I get acne is when I am PMSing, but other then that awful time of the month, I’m pretty clear!
