Hi people,
I had a hospital appointment today with the Endocrinology department. I think my GP referred me as I've put on loads of weight in a very short period of time. I also have an underactive Thyroid which has been treated with Levothyroxine, for approximately 6-7 years.
I changed from Codeine to Oramorph last June, this was after my best friend and the person who kept me grounded unexpectedly committed suicide. At the time I weighed 68kg/150lb, I noticed a almost total drop in my libido. I discovered Poppy Pods in about August, I've probably only had 7-10 days where I haven't had stovetop PPT since!!!!
My weight jumped to 230-240lbs in an incredibly short period of time, I probably peaked around this February. I've managed to get it down to 210-215lbs over last couple several months and it's staying there!!!!
My eating habits didn't change at all, from when I was human sized to now!!!! I eat dinner (usually) and snack bit last thing.
I'm on 140mg Oramorph daily and usually around 50-60g of PPT, I was on about 90-120g PPT from (roughly) October 21 til March 22.
I've been booked for a blood test to test testosterone levels. It was low in 2017/2018 and I was given Nebido to raise it 3x then.
Has anyone else had or heard anything similar linking low testosterone and high Morphine/ Opiates? I'm sceptical as it was a very quick weight gain. I think it's much more likely to be the shock and loss of my closest friend .
Curious if anyone else had anything similar????
Cheers folks
