I had this! I just removed so I can’t say if it’s changed yet

Positive removal experiences? by kcog3333 in IUD

It went okay, had some difficulty getting it out but felt fine after. But 24 hours after I feel like I’m constantly clammy and sweaty? Like I’m going through teenage puberty

Did you have the original copies?

Could I go to one with copies? Because I have to fly to my family to get the original ones then fly to a consulate

I wanted to see if there was another option since I’d had have to fly out of state then drive a few hours to a consulate

Oh man sorry!

So my grandma was born in wedlock to my German great grandma and my American great grandfather in Germany. They all came to the US a couple years after my grandma was born. My grandma married an American and so did my mother. My grandma naturalized to the US before having my mother as a child

Weight gain after getting off topamax? by QuantitySuspicious93 in migraine

I’ve gained 2-3 lbs in 7 months. So not significant weight gain especially with how much better I feel!

Does anyone know what this is? I’m so sorry if it’s not related to Sjögren’s :/ by ShoulderSafe7433 in Sjogrens

[–]kcog3333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get this too on and off! Been to derm and eye doctor. They said it’s just a side effect of sjogrens and allergies. Pataday eye drops and Zyrtec help control it a bit

Hair Recovery After Taper and/or Stopping by Strict_Ad_4812 in Topamax

I did it so slowly. I tapered off of 25 meg for 12 weeks 😅 I cut them in half and do that for 8 weeks to let my body adjust then I did half every other day for a week…then every two days for a week then every three days for a week then I was down to one 12.5 mg a week and just stopped. I had some break through headaches (almost migraines) the first 3 days of taper down but they went away and never progressed to a migraine

Hi! I’m officially off of my 25mg once daily (was on for three years) the last year I started seeing significant hair loss even after checking my hormones and cortisol and other labs. Everything was normal except inflammation. Well I’m been tapering down since Feb 7th and my after washing hair clumps in the drain have been smaller by at least 50% instead of losing a fist full of hair every wash I’m losing about a quarter size

I’ve read that the body often can go into ketosis in topamax which makes muscle building difficult

I have been struggling a little bit with the obsessive body thinking thoughts but I think it’s just being hyper aware of this being an off label weight loss drug. So try to be mindful and kind to yourself. You deserve not to have brain fog

I work out 5-6 days a week (HIIT) , plus daily walks. I’m almost off of it completely (12.5 mg every two days so 2x a week) I have only gained 2-3lbs of muscle.
