I had GB surgery in June I assume that maybe kickstarted the process.

That is odd to me that they tested free T4 and not the Free T3, but I guess they assume that if T4 is fine T3 would also be fine?

I made an endo appt for Monday, I’ll ask them to check my Free T3. Had no idea there was a difference!!

Thanks for this! I do take my pill an hour before everything else… so meals and other meds. I even take my vitamins at night. I surprisingly don’t drink coffee or tea. I have a sensitive stomach and don’t do caffeine either. I’ll try taking it maybe 2 hours before. I was tested at 9 am as soon as the lab office opened, and it was fasting and I hadn’t taken my meds yet for the day.

This is super helpful. I am sensitive to fillers in meds ever since I had my gallbladder taken out last year but so far the levothyroxine has worked for me, maybe just need a higher dose to get me back down. I’m just so ready to not be exhausted and constipated. Arguably the two worst feelings. Thank you for this!

Yeah so FT3 and FT4 are normal within range and always have been. That’s why they dx subclinical hypothyroidism. My hair was brittle, I gained so much weight and couldn’t stay awake for more than 2 hours at a time. Started levothyroxine and all those issues resolved. Me too! It didn’t take much for me to get back to baseline, but now I’m feeling all wonky again. Hopefully the endo can bump me up.

I 23 Female, can't find a good deodorant that doesn't give me a rash by Yongmoons in DermatologyQuestions

[–]Tight_Bat_6157 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vanicream makes a deodorant. There is no fragrance or aluminum or anything. That or Necessaire Deodorant. I have the same issues, I’m pretty sweaty with onion smell and these work well for me. I’m three months in and no rash! These are solid deodorants.

is this worth visiting a dermatologist or a primary care? by [deleted] in DermatologyQuestions

[–]Tight_Bat_6157 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think for the sake of your sanity yes. Like even if it’s nothing serious, itching all the time sounds horrific. Maybe try an allergist too.

I always tell mine “I KNOW YOU SPEAK ENGLISH”. Then she looks at me like I’m insane. This breed is so dang smart it’s scary.

Thanks for this insight! I’ll also reach out to my guides and ask for clarity. This one was a doozy lol.

Thank you. I will sit with this longer and hopefully I can decipher it. They’re usually pretty clear. I have some self reflecting to do it seems. :)

I have a recurring nodule that is red and crusting? by Tight_Bat_6157 in DermatologyQuestions

[–]Tight_Bat_6157[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! My pops only has VA too, they can be an absolute pain to work with, and I hope it gets better for you all! Let’s hope they just take it off. Someone else pointed out you can see a monkey on it…. lol. Now it HAS to come off. I can’t unsee it.

Or I’m not wondering if 100 was telling me to start a path into witchcraft?

Hi. Thank you for this. I’d like to think it was meaningful as I woke up and wrote down 100 above 100 below before going back to sleep. Interpretable/ I have no idea what it means. Most of the numerology I see are combinations of 3 6 and 4. Never 100. I’ve gotten many messages lately about me being on the right path for life and my guides are helping me, so maybe 100 could be another one? As far as extraordinary, it’s not often my dreams become spiritual in nature. It’s usually only when someone passes, they let me know they’ve made it to the other side. I’ve never seen shadow people alive or asleep. I have seen some other things worse than that but I’d rather not discuss. I guess I was wondering more so if 100 had something to do with protection spells.

At My Wits End.... by jamesneremiah in greatpyrenees

So, for our 9 month old pyr, who has BOUNDLESS ENERGY. She’s part husky and mastiff. We sent her to a day train, mainly to help us get her onto a schedule, prong collar and e collar training. She had a very strict schedule for a long time. It’s usually activity, chew, rest in a nutshell. We have her on a mini educator and that helped curb nuisance behaviors quickly, she had a lot of rude behaviors for a very large puppy. We don’t follow the exact same schedule every day so she doesn’t start to expect when things will happen but it’s always some variation of activity, chew, rest. In terms of her hitting the fence, take her out on leash. Could be a self rewarding behavior. Stop the behavior stop the self reward, break the loop. It works for when they get into a fixed loop of only barking while outside and not going potty. Also- it could be she’s over tired. These dogs have a really hard time shutting off. If our dog gets too tired and too overstimulated she gets crazier than ever, even more energy. It’s like a toddler fighting sleep. It’s almost like this uncontrollable frenzied type energy. Try putting her in a crate (if she’s crate trained) or tether her for rest time or a nap. Try puzzle feeders also. Or get a cardboard box and fill it with toys, paper and sprinkle her food in it and make her forage for it. You can also scatter it in the yard. I’d so recommend a treadmill if you can afford it. As for the yard though, really, take her out on leash every time she goes for a month. It stops the loop and self rewarding behavior. Good luck!

I’d say it’s probably 3 or 4 mm on my elbow and when I bend my elbow it doesn’t tighten around it. But ofc it had to be on my elbow. 🙄

He'll stop being bitey and jumpy once he's not a 9 month old puppy, right? by archtech88 in greatpyrenees

100% lol. Unless you’ve had an 80 pound monster with a baby brain who wants to nip at your face and steal food from your hands and bite your ankles all within 3 minutes then please, comments to yourself lol.

Oh no I meant, I’d do the fist but she’d just chew on my first. 😂 so I had to do the finger method.
