View allI'm really stressed out about my health right now. I've been dealing with hemorrhoids and started taking Himalaya Pilex tablets because I heard they could help. I was taking two tablets, twice a day, but after 14 days, my hemorrhoids got worse instead of better. Plus, I've noticed the nerves in my arms and legs are swollen, I'm hearing noises in my ear, and my TSH levels jumped to 9.2 from normal. I've stopped taking the Pilex tablets, but the swelling and noise in my ear keep getting worse. I'm really worried and looking for advice on how to stop the effects and what I should do next. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Your symptoms may be multifactorial and could involve both a side effect from the Pilex tablets and a potential thyroid issue. Stopping the medication was a good first step, but a thorough evaluation by a doctor is essential to rule out other health concerns and guide you on the next steps for treatment. It's crucial to monitor your thyroid function and address any potential underlying issues. Please get medical attention as soon as possible.

My mom has multiple gallstones with the biggest one at 15mm, and the doctor wants us to control her diabetes for 12 months before surgery. There's also a 43cm cyst in her right adnexa, but the doctor said removing it isn't urgent and could be too expensive to do along with the gallbladder surgery. He mentioned the cyst has a low chance of causing issues later. Should we still push to remove the cyst now or is it okay to leave it?
If the cyst is simple and asymptomatic, it’s okay to monitor it; focus on stabilizing diabetes first before combining surgeries.

I've been having this pinching pain in one spot of my stomach for a while now, but it usually just lasts a few seconds, so I've sort of ignored it. But lately, like for the past week, it's been happening more often. There's no swelling or marks or anything like that. What could be causing this?
It sounds like you might be experiencing intermittent pain due to something like gas, indigestion, or even stress. However, if the pain has become more frequent, it could be worth getting it checked out to rule out issues like ulcers, acid reflux, or other stomach conditions. A visit to a doctor would help clarify the cause.
