Does anyone have tips for the gallop interview at Stryker?! I have a 3rd interview this week for an associate in sports medicine!! I have met with 3 employees- a rep, a general branch manager, and a on-site specialist and each of them told me this is the make or break round for Stryker!!
What was y'all's experience with this round?
Has anyone experienced weight loss with lamotrigine? My psychiatrist says most people tend to gain weight but I have lost 30 since starting it last may… which is drastic for me because I'm 5’7 and now only 105lbs?
Lamotrigine saved my life!! It's help me so much
Any similar experiences while on it?
any helpful advice for my situation?
I have lived with severe migraines my whole life (ages 4-23 current). I’ve gotten several mris, cat-scans, tonsil/adenoid removed, Every injectable migraine medication and approved possible migraine/seizure/maintenance pain medication, allergy shots for 6 years, botox in neck/ head for 4 years and let’s just say the list goes on and on.
I have 10-17 migraines a month that prevent me from doing so many things. I have a MIGRAINE work/school note for any time i have a terrible one. At this point i’ve been to every doctor i could think of over my life and still nothing has helped -with NO answers
Pain begins when i initially wake up. It is primarily in the left side of upper spine/skull that shoots through the eye. Pain scale is majority of the time 7-10 and can last for hours/days. Once pain is present it progressively gets worse throughout the day. It is stabbing and constant.
-Nurtec 75mg is helpful but dull pain remains. -Sumatriptan Has been the most effective for the intense pain but causes too much stiffness and discomfort in my neck, jaw, range of motion in my neck.(is this normal?)- this is mainly my go to medicine but the discomfort is barely tolerable at times.
Chiropractor has been helpful but not effective enough. X-rays showed my atlas out of place so adjustments are helpful but my atlas is always shifting out of place.
Signs of Autoimmune disease but no diagnosis or answers- ANA markers are present and sometimes thyroid is high but nothing concerning according to doctors
i get random sharp neck spasms that are very uncomfortable and painful on the left side that tenses my from my neck up to jaw causing jaw clenching and left shoulder to lift up a little. Have lost about 30 pounds since December with migraines getting more intense… down to 103 !!!
If anyone could lead me in the right direction or have any advice please reply to this message!!

I am 23 and have been having insane pain in the back left side of my tongue. I can barely drink water or eat because of how painful it is. It’s been getting worse for about 2 weeks and the bumps keep growing and are inflamed. The pain has spread to my left jaw, under the tounge and my cheek/jfull left jaw line…, I am always clearing my throat non non stop and I’m starting to feel strain when I talk.. No virus, strep anything according to my primary … I have lost about 25 pounds in the past 4ish months. Down to 103 and i haven’t been this light since I was maybe 14… any thoughts if this could be tied together ? I’ve never had any issues of the sort!!
