Plain words, no embarrassment. It is extremely ordinary. — asked by Tomás

Two weeks of feeling wrong that turned out to be a thyroid dose needing adjusting.

Tem Money is allowed to be the answer. Nobody here thinks less of it.

MarnieAyr, UK

Skin has been better, which nobody mentions as a possibility.

BoazHaarlem, NL

Sore throat and a cold, entirely unrelated, and it flattened me more than it should have.

9

Bodhi Thank you for the boring week. Genuinely.

GwynforLlanidloes, UK

Cold hands constantly. Bloods normal. Nobody knows and I have stopped worrying about it.

6

Hettie Thank you for the honest version.

RayBarnsley, UK

Fatigue, still, and it has been more than a fortnight, so I am raising it properly at the review.

TedIpswich, UK

My gut has settled completely and it took about five months.

SableCape Town, ZA

Headache for three days and then I realised I had barely drunk anything since Tuesday.

4

TorKeswick, UK

Nausea reliably Thursday teatime to Saturday afternoon. Once I could see the pattern it stopped feeling random.

8

NolanHalifax, CA

The burping. Nobody puts it in the leaflet and it is one of the odder experiences of my adult life.

6

HalCambridge, UK

Headache for three days and then I realised I had barely drunk anything since Tuesday.

8

Lucas No advice, just: I am sorry. That sounds hard.

EdwynNewcastle, UK

Headache for three days and then I realised I had barely drunk anything since Tuesday.

6

TarnKeswick, UK

Constipation, which I have avoided saying for six weeks out of pure squeamishness. Ringing the pharmacist tomorrow.
