Avatar f tn If you smoke, I hope you quite that as well because that can lead to miscarriage and low birth weight. Make sure the doctor knows that you are willing and ready to breastfeed the baby because you know that that is the healthiest thing to do. This way your doctor will understand that you will be the best mother this baby can have and he may rethink about getting the social services involved. Good luck to you and my best wishes for a healthy baby and motherhood.
Avatar f tn I am on the 100mcg patches and Oxycodone IR (Immediate Release) 15mg tablets and have not experienced any weight loss. I have actually gained weight. I believe the weight gain is from my ankle fusion surgery not the medications... just as someone mentioned above I think maybe since you found some relief or comfort that you are not as depressed and feeling better I am sure you probably eat better and don't even notice it... Good luck!
Avatar f tn sometimes hydros and withdrawal can cause weight loss and i do know that a low fat content can cause ur cycle to stop....
5298012 tn?1366230319 My question is, did you guys experience any weight fluctuations while on hydrocodone? I have always struggled to keep weight on, but noticed I lost weight I really couldn't stand to lose while on these pills. I'm 6'6", 185 lbs normally, which is still a bit on the thin side, but after a 10 month bender I am down to around 172, which is way too thin for my height. What has been your experiences with weight loss/gain while taking these pills?
Avatar n tn Would test thyroid levels to see if the dose is appropriate but if the levels are fine, would need to evaluate for tumor recurrence or a gastro-intestinal cause for weight loss. The other endocrine problem that causes weight loss is adrenal insufficiency - testing cortisol may be appropriate in this setting.
Avatar n tn During detox and for the first 30 days i lost around 10 pounds and i was at my lowest weight ever and i felt great and skinny!!! Now, i gained 10 plus pounds from my ideal weight, my appetite has increased and i need to lose 10 pounds.
Avatar f tn I would say that if you are NOT looking to lose weight, then stay away from the tramadol because it will make you lose weight and very quickly. It should of been prescribed as a weight loss pill, as it helps to lose weight more so than any weight loss remedy that I see out in the markets.
Avatar m tn How long b4 I start seein sum weight gain??I am on day 6 of no hydrocodone.......symptons arent that bad...feeling lonely,cant sleep really, body temp going crazy...
Avatar n tn The most common side effects with WELLBUTRIN XL are weight loss, loss of appetite, dry mouth, skin rash, sweating, ringing in the ears, shakiness, stomach pain, agitation, anxiety, dizziness, trouble sleeping, muscle pain, nausea, fast heartbeat, sore throat, and urinating more often. Seizures may occur (studies showed an incidence of 1/1000 - 4/1000). The chances of having seizures increases with higher doses. Taking more than 450 mg/day increases the chance of serious side effects.
Avatar m tn Among the drugs you are taking Cymbalta causes memory loss, Pamelor, cyclobenzaprine, nortriptyline, hydrocodone and promethazine cause confusion, Tramadol causes hallucination and together all these drugs can affect your memory. You need a serious revision of your prescription. Please consult your treating doctor. Take care!
Avatar f tn In my opinion he has a personal issues with over weight patients that should be left at the clinic door. Encouraging weight loss and aiding a patient to achieve a healthy weight is one thing but denying needed pain medications for those reasons is totally unethical from my perspective. I encourage you to hold your head high and be assertive in your search for a new PMP or PCP. Again enlist the aid of your former PCP. Others willl post with their suggestions and information.
Avatar n tn some of the things you have described remind me of when I thought my ex was using again, he was taking random trips all the time to the store or making up stuff It was really odd, he was smoking cigs a lot too and lieing about that too, he def. lost a lot of weight and was sleeping a lot was anxious as well. sounds like he needs some help. remember that addicts lie a lot when they are under the influence so just be aware of that. what about money?
Avatar f tn I could spare the weight loss so only my PCP is concerned. But I have reasons with the death of my dad and immediately following undiagnosed abd pain that they now beleive is a failure of the huge mesh. But take a look at what you have been eating. I find that opiate therapy can either increase your appetite because you have less pain and feel better or the medication itself can reduce you appetite. These things can be insidious and we are often consciously unaware of them.
Avatar m tn I am trying to come off hydrocodone and find that it is difficult. I had total knee replacement one month ago and have been reducing from 2 pills every 4 hours to one every 8 and now one every 12. I still feel lousy after that. How long does it take to get off totally and do I go to halving one to further get off?
Avatar m tn Many times when people quit, they notice and increase in metabolism and weight loss. I also think you tend to make healthier decisions while clean and clear headed as far as diet and exercise are concerned. Also people often replace a negative habit with a more healthy one many times. When and if you decide you are ready to quit, we are here for you. This site is full of encouragement, support, and advice so please continue posting. Good luck to you!
Avatar f tn There are healthy ways to lose weight and that could be discussed in the specific forum but obtaining a nutrionist is best and Weight Watchers good as well but avoid weight loss products. Most are unhealthy or useless. And products with Nutrasweet should be avoided as well as that can worsen depression (as some studies show). Replace all sugared drinks with flavored seltzer water for starters. That worked for me.
Avatar n tn hi there lovely ladies! ok this may seem a bit of a rant, but I am so frustrated! I an 23 and was diagnosed with PCOS 2 years ago, i am on the pill, and was simply told by my doctor, exercise more and eat right (which is a bit suss as you'll see below), i can deal with the dieting, i can deal with the random periods and i can deal with the excess hair (my mums italian so it was kinda on the cards already) but i cannot deal with the weight!
Avatar m tn t have to count calories you eliminate the foods that cause the weight gain, the spikes in insulin which causes the weight gain and amazingly you will lose weight.. you will have more energy and it will become easier to exercise and you gain that energy.. I'm down 60 lbs and am loving eating this way.. it has cured a bunch of health problems and it has helped a bunch of people(including my parents) get to where they want to be with their weight.
Avatar f tn ) oh and my sister is pregnant with her fourth and all her pregnancies she always lost weight and not gained! So jus try ur best and eat when u can, good luck!
Avatar f tn hi beverlyhilsa, actually, most of our problem are just because of our bad habits, no one has forced you to eat junks, sugar or other stuff like that but still, you are eating. okay, now if you have really decided to lost weight just say "yes I can do it" and you are half done. people will share their experiences over this forum and I'll do the same. I use beyond weight management tea for my weight loss and found it really good.
Avatar f tn The most important things for weight loss is to calculate BMI and calorie intake requirement. Diet should be planned with more proteins and fibre, less carbohydrates and fat. On an average 2-3 kilos should be lost in a month. You should right and healthy. Never skip a meal. Also a fitness regime needs to be fixed. I would suggest that you visit a nutritionist and fitness expert for further assistance. Best.
Avatar f tn I found out when I was 5 weeks 2 days had it confirmed at 5 weeks 3 days and seen my dr and had an ultrasound at exactly 6 weeks. I have been super sick and have lost 5.5 lbs. I am overweight, pre pregnancy weight of 215 lbs. Now weighing in at 209.5 lbs. Should I be concerned about the weight loss? Or is it ok since I already am overweight?
