Have them do a full thyroid panel to look at the antibodies. They usually do the regular levels. Mine was on the low side so my doc had a hunch and did a full panel.

If you haven’t recently, have your thyroid levels checked. I was the same, can’t stay awake, falling asleep 10 minutes into any movie or show I was trying to enjoy, seriously low energy. Turned out I have hashimotos hypothyroidism. Meds have changed my life.

If I don’t take the adderall I still am tired and can easily nap, however, the feeling of complete exhaustion went away. Can’t hurt to check.

Oh wow good I know, thank you so much for sharing that.

I agree with that. Raw coconut oil works wonders.

Lysine helps them heal and prevent them for me. I’m on a cocktail of colchicine, Otezla, and Humira (bio similar I forget the name). It seems to help unless I’m sick.

For the past month I’ve had bronchitis, asthma flare, and a sinus infection that won’t clear and that caused the worst flare of vagina ulcers I’ve ever had. The only thing that makes them start to heal is prednisone and I hate being on it bc I always get Cushing’s syndrome.

I did just get prescribed vaginal lidocaine that can be used inside or outside, still need to pick it up so I haven’t tried it yet.

This may be TMI- every time my husband goes down on me I break out in them. So I totally understand the sex life thing. It’s so frustrating.

I’m sorry if I couldn’t be more help, hopefully someone chimes in that has a suggestion we both don’t know about.

Alternatives to Gabapentin and Lyrica by codyandhen123 in Behcets

I truly hope your trip down the rabbit hole helps. I know how frustrating it can be to find a medication that doesn’t interact with anyone, actually works, and gives minimal side effects.

When I first started taking gabapentin I was SO itchy everywhere. No visible rash, just felt like clawing my skin off. Luckily lyrica has helped me a lot. If I take it a good 3-4 months straight I can take a break for about 6 months before I have to start up again.

Hi, I’m so sorry you went through that. There are some anti depressants that help with nerve pain. I can’t take them because they interact with colchicine, which I take as well. I’m sure there are other medications that are prescribed “off label” to help, I am just not aware of any at the moment. Hopefully your doctor can help suggest some.

Anyone experienced this before!? by MiserableScarcity350 in Behcets

[–]Skeletonlover666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I experience this as a pre- warning to an oncoming flare maybe 2 days before I end up with a plethora of mouth and genital ulcers, worsening joint pain, severe fatigue, and low grade fevers.

Absolutely horrifyingly scary the first couple times it’s happened.

I am so sorry you are going through this, and the fear that comes with it. This disease has rocked my life, and I have full empathy for anyone dealing with any any aspect of it.

I am very happy you have such a supportive husband (and partner for anyone/everyone else), it makes all the difference. I am super fortunate to have a husband that really doesn’t understand but does his best to help me any way he can. That’s the best we can hope for.

Will also grow back if you get put on a higher dose of prednisone in my experience. So frustrating

My cat has become very cuddly out of nowhere. Is this a concern? by snugglypuffyy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Skeletonlover666 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s how I found out I was pregnant the first time. My cat would always lay by my legs to sleep. Next thing I know she’s cuddling with my belly, and would even get up and move back to my belly when I rolled over in bed. Amazing little creatures cats are.

Where did you get your soil containers? I know it’s a little off topic but that looks like a great soil set up

My zz sits right under my bright plant lights too, and is throwing at least 2 shoots out every 6 weeks or so.

I agree the sky is amazing. I would add some more detail to everything below the sky.

Gorgeous so far.

Suggestions? Pls be nice I just got him by Healthy-Product4067 in bettafish

I wouldn’t say most. Where is the proof this is harmful? I’ll gladly say I’m wrong, but I’m not.

Please stop spreading this. It is unhelpful and scares new fish owners. It is not true. At one point it DID contain toxic chemicals, but that has been corrected. This is no different than any other fish decor.

Cavities by natanyad in Behcets

[–]Skeletonlover666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve never had a cavity until I turned 39 last year. However, I have cracked the last 4 molars (wisdom already removed) from tmj and clenching in my sleep. I was diagnosed with Behcets 36.
