Synthetic drug symptoms and conditions

I have been on simvastatin for 2 yrs . The past six months have had foot pain my doctor described as neuroma.By the time I started physical therapy the pain was in my arch + tendons. I went to physical therapy for two months, the therapist became concerned when improvement peaked. Still have burning nerve pain. I think its time for natural supplements . I hear "red Rice Yeast" is effective.

Prednisone is a catabolic steroid, not anabolic which increases muscle, so people should know that continued use over time will literally break down and destroy muscle tissue. Without muscle, a person has no way of even standing more than a few seconds and could suffer many falls.....these falls are worse on the prednisone patient because prednisone also effects bone density and multiple disc fractures can result, leaving the person wheelchair bound.

How do I know? That's what happened to my mom. Also, if you are in a nursing home and contact scabies, forget about ever getting rid of them prednisone supresses the immune system so it can't kill them off, even with all the meds and treatments out there for scabies. Again, my mom.

I had my total Thyroid gland removed March 15.
I am taking Synthroid Levothyroxine Sodium 0.112 mg. since that date. I have been experiencing insomnia for about 7 days and runny, puffy, irritating eyes. I thought it might be allergies, but after trying some non-drowsy allergy medication this anoying eye problem continues.
I am going to call my Thyroid specialist on Monday because I can't stand it.
Now I am thinking are these symptoms because I do not have a Thyroid anymore or from the medication which I was told by my surgeon and my Thyroid specialist that since it is synthetic drug there are no side effects.

Is there anyone else that is experiencing the same symptoms with their eyes? My husband thinks I'm crazy.

Before anyone goes on another synthetic drug to balance out the side effects of Yasmin, you might want to consider herbal options. I'm trying vitamin B6 and St. John's wort for depression, kelp for thyroid balance, and parsley tea to bring on my periods when they're supposed to come. Taking herbal medicines should be done with careful consideration just like pharmaceuticals (sp?) but maybe a little less risky. If anyone else has tried this route to de-tox, please share your experiences!
