Pneumonia Treatment
Sometimes different antacids or acid suppressing medications like proton-pump inhibitors are closely associated with the risk increment of pneumonia especially in those in their old age. The discovery of penicillin, other major antibiotics and modern surgical techniques in 20th century has decreased the mortality rates of pneumonia. There are some other minor symptoms like severe headache, loss of appetite, excessive sweating and chest pain related to pneumonia.

Elevated triglycerides and uric acid
Male , 38 years, 186 cms , 91 kgs. Total cholestrol is 180 mg/dL. Triglycerides 201 mg/dL. Vldl 40 mg/dL. Uric acid 7.2 mg/dL. Gamma GT 18 U/L. HBAlc 5.7. Sgot 24 U/L . Sgpt 30 U/L. I have fatty liver grade 1. I am not doing any physical exercise nor dieting. My sgpt and sgot were previously 70 and 50. Total cholestrol was earlier 210. Only thing that I did is increased water intake to 2 liters daily from .75 L daily. My belly size also reduced by 40%. I never felt that water suppressed my appetite instead it increases appetite which is why i dont reduce food. I avoid sugar. Does water intake improves metabolism . What is your recommendation?.
Weight Loss Resistance
I am a 28-year-old with Thyroid and a BMI of 32.0. I have been taking 50mcg of Thyroxine for one month, and my TSH is shigh at 10.5 mIU/L, and my HbA1c is 6.0%. Despite being physically active with swimming and recently started gyming, I am experiencing complete weight loss resistance and a high Visceral Fat level of 18. My biggest struggle right now is that I feel I have absolutely no control over my hunger; I experience intense 'food noise' and the urge to binge even immediately after eating full meals. I recently completed my Vitamin D treatment, but my metabolism feels completely stalled. I would like to know if my thyroid dose needs to be increased and if I am a candidate for Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) to help manage this uncontrollable hunger ?? I really want to lose weight as I'm out of energy and all day I feel inactive and sleepy
