Today is the first day this week I actually felt well enough to get off of the couch. Good thing, too, because this house needed cleaning like you read about. Dylan has been sick with a cold since Sunday and will not be well enough to return to school until at least next Monday, and with all of this snow and my normal thyroid fatigue issues we haven't left the house since Saturday. The kids don't seem to mind sticking around the house, especially since they've been spoiled with gingerale and popsicles for their sore throats.
I put this blog together last night when I couldn't fall asleep and spent about an hour this morning importing all of my thyroid posts from past blogs. I had quite a ride down memory lane reading all of those old posts. I've come to realize that my last two doctors had absolutely no idea what they were doing and my new doctor, well, she's amazing. On my first visit with her I told her how much medicine I was taking and she explained that I was taking double the dose for a person my size, that the reason that my legs completely stopped working and that I felt like I was being poisoned was because in actuality, I was being poisoned.
I weighed myself today. 103.5 pounds!! That is the most I've weighed in months! Even though I'm still feeling the effects of chronic fatigue, I am doing so much better than I was and I'm just so happy I found my new doctor.
