what day is it?
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.
What the heck is going on?
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.
i feel weird
So…I feel weird. Not bad and not sick but just weird. I’ve been taking my T4 (genric Synthroid) since Wednesday, I believe. I hadn’t really noticed any symptoms. Or rather, I noticed symptoms but I didnt want to verbalize anything. yet. Even at my age, I have a fast metabolism and I figured I would start ...Read more.
Thryoid and Mona Lisa
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.

I cried today. A lot. My world crashed and fell apart in large pieces on me. I went to the endocrinologist (Dr. Endo). I had my hopes up. High. Prolly too high. I KNEW that finally FINALLY this doctor was going help me. I put too much hope in it. I knew that but I ...Read more.
it’s hairy
So I’ve been doing some research about women’s hair loss. In fact, I’m constantly looking up information on the Googles about hair loss. Constantly. Ok so I’ve learned that there are many different types of hair loss and blah blah medical terms for hair loss. There are many reasons for hair loss: polycystic ovary syndrome ...Read more.
Wednesday’s child is full of…
“When lip service to some mysterious deity permits bestiality on Wednesday and absolution on Sunday, cash me out.” Frank Sinatra yeah whatever, Frank. what? Hello Wednesday, you can pound dirt. Or sand, or whatever. Today, not surprisingly, I feel like crap. Again. But whatever. I was very moody yesterday, not sure if that was evident. ...Read more.
i’m like a broken record. or a hypochondriac.
Looking up endocrinologists today. I know I know I’ve been down this road before. But I’m taking another go. For two reasons: #1 mostly because I’ve been feeling like crap: lethargic and moody for several weeks (ok two) and #2 the rest (leastly?) because I talked to a sympathetic ear this morning. I’ve been through ...Read more.
