Early diagnosis and treatment often lead to normal growth. For example, children can reach a normal height and weight for their age.
Many patients with congenital hypothyroidism, when properly managed, can have normal cognitive development. They are able to learn, go to school, and have a normal intellectual capacity. In some cases, they can even be high - achieving students. Moreover, they can lead a normal social life, making friends and participating in various social activities just like anyone else.
In success stories of congenital hypothyroidism, the individuals can have normal physical and mental health in the long - term. Their bodies function well, with normal metabolism. They don't face problems like extreme fatigue or abnormal body temperature regulation that are often associated with untreated hypothyroidism. They can also pursue their dreams and careers without being held back by their condition.
There is a girl, Lily. She was detected with congenital hypothyroidism soon after birth. Her parents were very vigilant about her treatment. With proper medical management including regular check - ups and adjusted dosage of thyroid medications as she grew, she not only achieved normal physical growth but also excelled in academics. She is now studying in a prestigious university, which is a great success considering her condition at birth.
A positive outcome is improved mental health. People with BIID in success stories often report reduced anxiety and depression levels. For example, they stop obsessing over the body part they had issues with.
One positive outcome is the clearance of the virus. For example, some people through a healthy lifestyle like regular exercise and balanced diet manage to get rid of HPV 16.
In some success stories, patients with anxiety disorders related to chronic pain conditions have reported a reduction in anxiety levels after taking pregabalin. This is because as the pain lessens, the associated stress and anxiety also tend to decrease. Also, for those with diabetic neuropathy, pregabalin has helped in restoring some normalcy to their lives by reducing the painful symptoms that made simple tasks like walking difficult.
In some success stories, there is an improvement in relationships. For those with mental health issues, their conditions often strained relationships with family and friends. But with the help of Luvox, as their symptoms ease, they can interact more positively with others. For instance, a person with social anxiety disorder was able to have more meaningful conversations with their family and started to rebuild damaged relationships.
In some success stories, Serophene not only led to pregnancy but also improved the overall reproductive health of women. Women who had irregular periods found that their cycles became more regular even after they stopped using Serophene in some cases. This is important as it can have long - term benefits for their hormonal balance and general well - being. Also, for couples struggling with infertility, it brought hope and a new start to their family - building dreams.
Weight gain is another positive. Many patients, especially those with diseases causing wasting like cancer or AIDS - related conditions, were able to gain back lost weight. This is important as it can improve their immune function and general well - being. For instance, a cancer patient who was very frail due to significant weight loss became stronger after taking megestrol and gaining weight.
In some CSF leak success stories, the most obvious positive outcome is the relief of symptoms. For example, the persistent headache that many patients suffer from due to CSF leak vanishes. This allows them to function better in their daily lives.
In j pouch success stories, a common positive outcome is better digestion. For example, patients can tolerate different types of food better. Before the j pouch, they might have had severe restrictions on what they could eat due to their bowel condition. But after the successful implementation of the j pouch, they can eat a more balanced diet, including fibrous foods that were previously off - limits. This not only helps in maintaining a healthy body weight but also improves overall nutrition. Additionally, they often experience less abdominal pain and discomfort, which allows them to be more active socially and physically.
In lichen sclerosus success stories, improvement in skin appearance is common. The white patches and thickening of the skin, which are typical symptoms, can fade away. One patient I heard about had very visible white patches on her vulva. After treatment with a combination of medications and good skin care, the patches became less prominent and the skin looked much healthier. This not only improved her physical condition but also had a positive impact on her self - esteem.
