Woo-hoo! My thyroid was completely out of whack!

I was afraid I was slipping back because I just couldn't get myself to move. Then my doctor did the annual check of my TSH levels, and it turns out that I was not only low, I was WAY low. He re-wrote my presciption to ensure that I'll be getting synthroid and not a generic and raised the dosage. I feel a lot better already.

2. So cool he caught it! Something like that happened to Doug once.

His moods were all over the place and he had no energy and a host of symptoms. I asked the so called doctor to check his blood sugar. He was diabetic as hell! And that whole pack of symptoms vanished as soon as his sugar was stabilized.

3. Just had mine taken out completely last month

and I notice my usually high blood pressure has been perfectly normal,which it never was before,even with medication.No spikes,no headaches...it's pretty nice.If I had known this would happen I would have let them take it out even if I didn't have tumors in the damn thing :)
