Lately I’m beginning to think I’m overmedicated. Or crazy. I’ve been on 50mcg of generic Synthroid for almost three weeks now.

So I’m reading an article from thyroid patient advocate Mary Shomon. In this article she discusses why and when you need an endocrinologist.

So maybe you’ve noticed I haven’t been around much since june 1st. or maybe you haven’t notice. Whatever. But since completing NaBloPoMo for May, I’ve taken a teeny little break.
