Are there any side effects of AKI? I had it last year as a result of some painkillers that dint suit me (ortho recommended) and since then have gained a lot of weight which im not able to reduce, lethargic most of the day, puffy face, im on Rx for Thyroid and AKI induced HTN, no amount of diet control and exercises are helping me, totally frustrated to the extent that i feel like whacking others when they comment on my weight. All my blood reports are normal still terrible symptoms i have, I do have PCOS also, so combination of all the worst, can someone please guide..!!
