I was on thyronorm 100 mcg for 1.5 years and got tested for TSH, T3 & t4 with very normal values consistently twice tested in a period of 3 months. Can I stop the medication and maintain health through yoga and fitness or should I continue the medicine? Please help!
Doctor's Answer
Hi,
Thyronorm is a tablet which is replacing your thyroid hormone level and even if your levels have come to normal, they are normal due to the drug and not naturally so more or less thyroid hormone replacing drug are life long and leaving the drug will slowly bring you back towards the same hypothyroid levels(you should be taking the drug).
That is a good news that your levels have tested normal, now your doctor might try to bring the dose down and settle you to a lower dose than earlier but ... Read Full Answer
About a year ago I had a serious dental problem. I had an apicectomy performed and the surgeon left a lot of leftover amalgam inside my jaw.
To cut a long story short my body rejected the amalgam and it started to come out of my jaw in pieces. Before the dentist realised what the problem was he prescribed about 4 courses of antibiotics and this led to a very severe balanitis after the 4th course. It got treated succesfully with cream and fluconazol(150mg). Now It seems to return in a very mild form lasting a couple of days after I treat with cream every couple of months or so. Do I need to visit the doctor again or should I wait until it stops naturally? I had surgery to remove the amalgam from the jaw when they realised that that was causing the inflammation. My jaw is recovering very well.

I think post surgery, Your dentist must have taken the X-Ray to confirm complete removal of amalgum. Balantitis most likely is coincidental need to consult dermatologist for same. ... Read Full Answer
Hi Puneet,
Every time i eat something i have this inflammatory sensation in my throat that's kind of very uncomfortable. I cannot eat spicy food at all these days. Every time i eat junk food like burgers or Pizza or KFC, i end up having problem with my stomach (stomach upset mostly).
This problem started since 2010 when i was doing night shifts for my company. There was a time when i did graveyard shift for 3 consecutive weeks. I stopped doing night shifts after i had problems with my stomach.
I have a very tough time in finding food of my taste here. I generally prefer salads and bland food. Fruits rich in alkaline level tend to help me a lot.
I'm not married yet, so its very difficult for me to find such food everywhere especially at my workplace.
I consume alcohol every weekend but next day morning i end up having acidity.
So i have to take ENO (fruit salt) to feel better. This has been the case since 3 years now.
The only food which suits me is Bland food and fruits (especially the ones rich in alkaline level).
I would really appreciate your help with this.
Thanks!

Hi,
You can have acinil-o along with pantoprazole but pantop will have better effects than acinil-o.
Then in 7th point I told about alcohol and not water. Alcohol also causes acidity,specially empty stomach,so you may have alcohol after having some food.
In fact you should have plenty of water which I had missed to tell you.
Feel free to ask further question. ... Read Full Answer
Does redbull increase your erection time and is there any medicen where i can increase my erection n ejaculation tyme
Doctor's Answer
Hi,
Redbull can not have any effect on your erection time and specially ejaculation time.it is an energy drink and you may feel energetic just for a few minutes after having it and might give you a feel that you are feeling energetic and you may be able to perform better.
Now yes there are drugs which can be given to increase your erection time as well as ejaculation time but drugs do have side effects and they can be prescribed only after examination.(because they have serious side effects)
