I wish to know whether it is advisable to take flaxseed and thyroxin. I have done this for many years and recently my thyroxin has been decreased from 125 to 100 effectively so seems OK but would appreciate your opinion. Thank you.

I have mild moderate osteopenia from a dexa screening and was wondering if prolonged use of Atenolol (Tenormin) might be responsible. I eat right, i dont smoke, i exercise regularly, i rarely drink, i am not overweight, no one in my family has osteoporosis. Also do i need to check it with a doctor?

No one lost muscle tissue/weight during or after the BMT????Really??? I lost 75lbs during and after my BMT. 205 to 130lbs. I have no muscle mass at all.
It has been over 4 years since my transplant and I still cannot rebuild the lost muscle. This is with
testosterone shots weight training BCAA Whey protein
creatine etc etc etc.
I find it hard to believe muscle wasting did not occur with other patients.

Fraud!!!!

Hi
I used Lopid 300 mg once a day for about 3 to 3.5 months. My blood sugar levels rose...
I stopped Lopid.
Lopid also caused pain in the lower ribs, just above the stomach apart from muscle weakness.
I stopped the drug and awaiting for improvement.
