I'm dealing with a Vitamin D3 deficiency and my doctor prescribed some Vitamin D3 capsules from Mankind that I'm supposed to take weekly. But after taking them, I've been feeling like my head is heavier and I'm constantly thirsty. Is it normal to feel this way? Could there be a problem with how I'm taking them, or is there a better way to boost my Vitamin D3 levels quickly? Any advice would be great.

For a 20mm kidney stone, medication alone may not be effective.

Consult your urologist or nephrologist for alternative treatment options.

They may recommend:

Alpha-blockers (e.g., Tamsulosin) to help pass the stone

Potassium citrate to help dissolve the stone

Pain management medication (e.g., analgesics)

Surgical options, such as lithotripsy or ureteroscopy, may also be considered.

I've noticed this growth in both my armpits over the past couple of months, and I'm not sure if it's just armpit fat or breast tissue. How can I figure out what's going on, and what's the best way to reduce it?
