Question

I'm dealing with thyroid issues and I've been drinking hot lemon and honey water in the mornings to help with weight loss. But now I'm really unsure if I should be taking my medication first thing instead. What would be the best order to do this?

Question

I'm struggling with some health issues and I'm not sure what to make of them. I've been dealing with wheezing and trouble breathing, along with a dry cough. At first, I tried treatment for GERD, but it didn't help. This has been happening on and off for about 4 years now. What worries me even more is that since last year I've noticed I'm urinating a lot more and it's really diluted, plus I'm feeling dehydrated. My plasma osmolality is 320. Are these signs related to something specific? My kidney, liver, and thyroid functions all checked out normal, and so did my CBC. What could be going on here?

Question

I'm really confused about something. I was dealing with severe weakness and muscle pain, so I got tests done for vitamin B12 and vitamin D. My vitamin D level came back at 10, and my vitamin B12 was 176. After that, I took injections for both vitamins and started taking B12 tablets every night, plus the Uprise tablets for vitamin D every week. But after just 4 days, I got tested again, and my vitamin B12 level shot up to over 2000, while my vitamin D went up to 17. Is it normal for levels to change that quickly? What could be going on?
