So I have a regular 27 day cycle and I started my pill last week and not on the first day of my period to get my body used to it before marathon nov 4th. It has been a while since i was on the pill. Im taking lo loestrin.ok, so I got a little relaxed with hearing what you all said here. I spoke to my doctor today and told her i'll skip the placebo and go from one pack to starting another pack until i'm done with the marathon on nov 4, to hold off my period. She goes, well then there is a very strong chance if you do this you will have breakthrough bleeding for a very long time or a very long period until the marathon. Im freaked a little, please let me know your thoughts? or should i let my period come finish the full pack with placebo pills - and avoid placebo (last 4 pills) fo...

In early 2019, I began training for a marathon in Vancouver, BC, scheduled for May 2, 2019. Additionally, I was averaging 250 Grouse Grinds per year (often referred to as the "natural stair master"). At 65 years old, I was in very good health for my age. Being able to complete the Grouse Grind in 35-40 minutes put me in the top 10% of all participants. However, in April 2019, I started taking Epclusa. To provide some background: I was diagnosed with Hepatitis C in 1973 in Ontario, Canada. After this diagnosis, I stopped using drugs and changed my lifestyle habits. Despite the fact that doctors and specialists confirmed I was in great shape, the Canadian Medical Association strongly recommended that I take Epclusa. This turned out to be a big mistake. Within one week of starting ...

Hello, I've been on 150 of Synthroid for about 3 years. Recently I started training for a half marathon and have lost about 25 pounds in the last 7 months. Does weight loss/gain mean dosage change? Last blood test was about 4 months ago and everything checked out normal. Any feedback would be great. Thank you. ## The dosage is based on the levels of thyroid hormones, not your weight, but your doctor should be checking that every 3 to 4 months and make an adjustment to the medication, if necessary. How often has your doctor been running the tests?

Hi all. Someone put muro tears in my soda at school and I started crying right away and ran home and watched a bad girls club marathon. HELP WHAT DO I DO ## I am currently hospitalized for a severe case of Muro Tears. My symptoms were extreme highs of anger and aggression followed by extreme lows of self doubt and no respect from those around me. Doctors say I will never fully recover, but I feel through medication and Dr. Phil I can one day recover. ## I think my ymca has a sport group on tuesdays and thursdays I'm going to attend so I can surround myself with other sad sacks ## Ha ha ha, very funny everyone! Clearly this discussion thread is a joke. Probably a couple of drunk kids. Does anybody have legitimate questions or information about this product?

Has anyone had problems with expelling pellets from the insertion site on the back glute? I ran a lot. I'm an ultra marathoner that runs at least 40 miles a week. I have now pushed out pellets two different times. Is there a better place to insert the pellets other than the back glutes? ## Hello, Davis! How are you? The website for Testopel just lists it as them needing to be inserted into a fatty area, with the hip or buttocks given as examples. So, you might want to speak to your doctor about trying a different area. The FDA warns that this use of Testopel could increased your risk of heart attack, stroke, or death. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Yes my husband has lost about 4 pellets w his last injection! Dr said he must be flexing that area I was watching him work a...

I have been on Xarelto for 4 months. I am trying to exercise but still feel so fatigued. I was very active before my DVT/PE (1/2 marathons, cycling, lifting) and just having a hard time feeling normal when exercising. Feel very out of breathe when only running 3-5 miles. Can't seem to run more than 5 miles now! Anyone else experience this? Also I have gained about 10 lbs and can't seem to lose it! Feeling very frustrated! ## Hello, CJ! How are you? Yes, those are known side effects of Xarelto, as listed by the FDA. You may also experience headache, increased risk of bleeding, easy bruising and joint.muscle aches. Can anyone that's been on it chime in with their experience? Some people have had to stop taking it, due to the side effects. ## CJ, my profile is similar to yours....

Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability and weight changes.

I've had prostate cancer about 8 yrs. ago. Before I started on a testosterone supplement my levels were very low. Felt like I ran a marathon every day. No energy. Through trial and error my doctor and I have settled on 5 pumps of axiron a day. All my levels are good. I'll be turning 65 in about 4 months, and I'm trying to find the cheapest way to go on a prescription supplement plan that allows me to continue taking this medication. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I've been on Clindamycin 150mg x3, 3 times a day to treat SI Joint MRSA. I've taken this for 11months. I started jogging (I use to be an elite marathon runner) 3 months ago. No problems.. just the typical shin splints and common running injuries. During the past month I'm experiencing weakness in legs and extream soreness in my calf muscles, to a degree that I can only walk for 10min. My hospital checkups are 3months apart and I'm supposed to be on antibiotics for at least 1yr. I've decided to stop taking antibiotics yesterday, due to the pain. I've read on forums of cases that Clindamycin can cause muscular and joint pain. Is this true?? ## Hello, Tracey! How are you? Yes, the FDA does list muscle and joint pain as being possible side effects of this antibio...

My husband has been on Humira since December, 2017. He has been experiencing leg pain and weakness in his legs. He describes it like it feels like he ran a marathon. He even has trouble getting up sometimes. Is this something like anyone else has experienced and will it go away? Other than this, it has been working for him...took his psoriasis almost completely away. But he really doesn't like this feeling in his legs. ## Those can be normal side effects of this medication, according to NIH reports. Other side effects may include headache, sepsis, sinusitis, anxiety, and insomnia. It is hard to know if they will go away, in some cases they tend to linger when one is on this medication, and it has caused some people to have to stop taking it.

When on statins, CPK level increases. How to solve this and keep the level healthy ? ## CPK levels indicate that muscle tissue is dying. Unless you are a serious athlete competing in marathons or cross fit competitions, you should not have an elevated CPK level. Let me repeat this, high CPK levels indicate that your muscles are dying. Muscle death is the last thing that someone should have if they want to remain healthy. Statins can lead to high CPK levels and muscle death. If this occurs, the statin should be discontinued. You cannot BOTH stay on statins and stop the muscle death. You need to discuss with your doctor about getting off the statins asap. As far as 'keeping your cholesterol healthy', that high cholesterol levels lead to heart disease is a highly debated hypothesis...

I've been taking Losartan for mild hypertension. I also have terrible arthritis in my hips, knees, toes and back. I was fit before, apart from mild hypertension. I could have walked a marathon this time last year. I asked the doctor could it be Losartan, as I loved walking and now am not able to walk much at all. ## What types of symptoms are you experiencing? Can you please post back and clarify? Do you think it is causing the arthritis, or was it something you already had that you think it might be making worse? I hope my question aren't offensive, I am just trying to get to the root of the problem. The FDA lists the typical side effects of Losartan as possibly including nausea, dizziness, increased urination, gout, hypotension, diarrhea, and anorexia. ## I definitely believe ...

I have a pacemaker, during my last device check I was changed from Metoprolol Succinate ER 50 mg twice a day to 100 mg Metoprolol Succinate SA once a day I have fatigue weakness and so tired I feel like I ran a marathon. Can't exercise feel like a Mac truck ran over me ## Those can be normal side effects of this medication and it may take 4 to 5 weeks for your body to adjust to the new dosage, so the side effects taper off. According to the FDA, you may also experience nausea, dizziness, increased urination, and hypotension. Are you on any other medications, or just this one?

Hello My physcian put me on Sprintec to avoid a period for vacation. I started it lateJuly. I skipped the placebo. August 31 I started spotting and I am now on my vacation and on my 7th day of spotting. My Dr advised doubling up on the pill. What if I just stop it completely? I have marathon in 5 days and do NOT want to be bleeding. ## If you stop it completely, you will most likely start a full period, since it is a withdrawal of the hormones that induces your period. Spotting is normal, when taking oral contraceptives. It can occur for the first 3 months, or so, while your body is getting used to them. The FDA lists the other typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, PMS-like symptoms and weight gain. It would be best to follow your doctor's instructi...

I am having pain in both legs. Starts from the feet and goes upwards. Both my knee joints and right shoulder joint also ache. Can this medication help? ## Bone-C Plus is a multivitamin supplement, it contains Calcitrol, Calcium, Folic Acid, Methylcobalamin and Vitamin B6. It is sometimes given to people with certain types of joint and never pain, because a lack in vital nutrients can cause or aggravate the condition. ## I ran a half marathon on 1st Dec 2013 and since mid Jan 2014 my and knee and ankle of my left leg are in pain. I went to the doctor and was given Cipla Nicip plus. Can you advise if this tablet can resolve my pain issue?

My period is very regular starts 28 days apart like clockwork. Have a big romantic trip and want it to not start on my trip. So Dr. gave me Lo Loestrin Fe 26 pill pack samples to try. My trip is Nov 11-18 with my period to start on the 15th. My next period is due to start Sept 20. How and when should I take the pills. There is no risk of pregnancy... tubes tied ## You should just be able to skip the last four pills and start a new pack. This should prevent you from having a period that month. At the end of the new pack you'll have you period like normal. I had to do this for my wedding. I just skipped a period so basically I went seven weeks between a period. ## Hi!
