Yep, here we are full circle. sort of. I’m totally confused about what day it is. I know the date, but not the day. Why? Cuz I’ve been crazy busy and i have no real office to speak of to help me get organized. As we speak (haha like we’re having a conversation here) all of ...Read more.

Lately I’m beginning to think I’m overmedicated. Or crazy. I’ve been on 50mcg of generic Synthroid for almost three weeks now. I’ve blogged, researched, and complained about my symptoms and reread portions of my hypothyroid books. The bottom line is that I’m still not feeling better. The only symptom that has improved has been the mood ...Read more.

So, I’ll cut to the chase. I started my first dose of T4 Wednesday. And boy it’s been a long time coming, as you know. Finally connected with the gynecologist who was the only doctor to believe in me enough to willingly try a dose of Synthroid on me. In case I forgot to tell ...Read more.

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

But after yesterday’s two unfulfilling naps, I went to bed at 9pmish and slept in till 9am. All ...Read more.
