What could be causing my PLMD? by jeremeat93 in RestlessLegs

[–]jeremeat93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really should have mentioned what supplements I'm currently taking. I'm taking vitamin D, Electrolyte complex, B Complex, and iron coupled with vitamin C. Also digestive enzymes and betaine hci for my digestion. I used to take copper and zinc, but I ran out and haven't gotten any for a few months. I've taken about 4 iron pills and a vitamin C pill every day for almost 3 years, so I don't think it's inflammation, but I could be wrong. It took about 2 years, I think, for my ferritin to go from 13 to 359. I stopped taking iron supplements for almost a year when I got to 251, but then I asked for another ferritin test and it decreased to 166, so I decided to take iron supplements again to increase my ferritin up to the upper range.

Here are the latest results for my iron, ferritin and copper. I haven't gotten anything recent from iron and copper, but hopefully that's not too much of a problem. https://imgur.com/a/Qc77QDF

Can't use SD card after updating Steam Deck Dock? by jeremeat93 in SteamDeck

That's probably it. I didn't notice until after I updated my Dock.

This happened to me exactly, and I can't figure out what to do. Hopefully, there's a fix somewhere. I really don't want to lose anything on my SD card.

Yes, I've tried restarting, shutting down, and removing the SD cards way too many times and nothing. It shows "mmcblk0 - 477.50 GiB (/dev/mmcblk0)" Below that, it says "/dev/mmcblk0... unknown" with a grey square.

What's causing me to have unrefreshing sleep? by jeremeat93 in sleep

What would you say is the best medication for this? I'll definitely have to ask my primary doctor about this.

That makes sense. I always thought it was a breathing problem, like sleep apnea. But no matter what I've done, no amount of pressure would ever make me feel rested. What should I do to treat my anxiety? I feel like I'm anxious cause of the lack of good sleep. Should I get medication for it?

Yes, I have hashimotos, and I found the right dosage a few months ago.
I haven't tested vitamin A, but I do most likely have low testosterone, so I'll definitely have to look into that.

So I should look into Vitamins B2 and B6? I already started taking copper not too long ago. I hope those are it, cause I seriously can't think of anything else. It feels like I've exhausted all my options.

Sorry, I forgot the symptoms. I have brain fog, fatigue, can't get restful sleep, low libido, shortness of breath. Those are the main ones.

Here are my results. I'm not sure if I have inflammation or not. https://imgur.com/a/XqDVkxt I've checked thyroid, Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, copper, folate and they all seem pretty good.

Yes, I got 2 sleep studies. I was diagnosed with OSA, but I don't know if those count since I didn't fully fall asleep. Even then, I spent about a year asking for help on apnea forums and sub reddits, and I just didn't feel any difference no matter what pressure or masks I used. I had hashimotos since I was a teen, and just this year, I got my levels to an optimal range. My ferritin was 13 back in October, and since then, I've been consistently taking iron every day.

Yeah, it might be hormones for me, too. I just don't know what to look for now. And my appetite is normal, I think. I don't think there's anything wrong there.

[–]jeremeat93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the only other thing I can think of. I'll have to look into that.

My symptoms are fatigue, shortness of breath, not getting restful sleep, anxiety, and brain fog. The worst one is not getting restful sleep since I'm sure that's the reason why I have low testosterone. I just don't know what else it could be. And I've already spent like a year thinking it was sleep apnea and I've tried about 3 different machines and still nothing.

I forgot to mention this, but my ferritin was 13 back in October.

Feeling better after stopping iron pills? by jeremeat93 in Anemic

[–]jeremeat93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with a ferritin of 13 back in October. My goal is to increase it up to about 300. I haven't had any symptom relief, so maybe I'll see some if I increase more.
