Wow!

And now for my shocking, wonderful, and somewhat concerning news. My TSH is 8.97! It shocked the shit out of me when I saw that. I really thought I was looking at the wrong results from a differe...


Okay, time to write about my visit with the endo yesterday, and I can’t say I was too impressed with her even though she did acknowledge that my personal normal could be higher than the standard ...

Ah, Energy!

On the road now to see my new endo so I’ll type and share this later as I’m writing in a paper journal at the moment. Slept amazingly well and have amazing energy! For months I worried I wouldn’t...

Catching up

Been too tired to write for days. Despite being exhausted yesterday, I managed to get to my ENT and we even stopped to eat afterward at Applebee’s. The doctor was an hour late but very nice. It’s...

Dreams

I’m closing comments (when I remember to) because I’m tired of spammers. I’ll still read/comment on my buddies. ;) It’s nearly 5:00 in the morning and this rat has been asleep since I got up at 1...


I heard a little thump at 4:30 yesterday morning, checked the cam, and saw Ray throw a suitcase in his backseat and then take off. I wonder if he only came down because something was going on dow...

Article

“I was shown the consequences of my life, thousands of people that I’d interacted with and felt what they felt about me, saw their life and how I had impacted them. Next I saw the consequences of...

Rhodiola Rosea & Hydroxyzine

Just a quick entry to let people know I’m still alive. More details can be found through the link I added to my profile, once again, since some people were asking for it. For now, I’m gonna be tr...

Not doing well

I haven’t been feeling the greatest physically or emotionally so I’ve been keeping most of my writing on lesser-traveled sites. It’s just that I know my recent entries sound rather down and I don...

Rat pics

Here are some pics of Tinkerbella. This should give you an idea of how big she is, although she is still the smallest rat we ever had. The best but the smallest.

Cancer Spot

I totally have to stop entering sweepstakes. This isn’t 20 years ago anyway when it was possible to win these things. All it’s doing is generating spam calls. Tom is at the doctor now getting the...

Argh

I wasn’t going to do an entry today, but I’ll do one if only just to bitch about my shitty health woes. Each year that I suffer, I fear I’m never going to get my health back. Being healthy is def...

Hello, Idalia

Idalia is here! But all she’s bringing us is wind and rain. Looks like she’s going to hit the Big Bend area as a cat 4. They’re saying this will be a first. Global warming is having some scary ef...

Idalia and Appt

Yesterday we went from having a hurricane watch to a hurricane warning. Things are closed for the rest of the month, and Tom may not be able to get the cancerous spot on his forehead taken care o...

Hurricane Idalia

Yesterday was another shitty day in that I was anxious. I hope Tom’s theory is correct and that it’s just residual effects from adding vitamin D. It’s true that when you cut back, your TSH drops ...

Hetlioz

I slept better, but damn was last night kinda shitty. I was in a horrible mood and devoid of energy too, of course. I have more energy tonight because my sleep didn’t get broken up like the last ...

Thanks

First, thanks to those who have cared enough to comment on my entries. I appreciate those who read me regularly leaving comments every now and then even if it’s just once in a while. Tom suggeste...


Thanks to the nice person who showed me how to insert these fancy fonts! So how are you fine folks doing today? Me, I feel like shit. But while I’m at it, we think we’re on to something as far as...

I just can't win

Got my lab results and I am more baffled than ever. I knew the results were going to be bad. I’ve been cold, calm, and fat. My skin has also been a little dry. But I thought my TSH might be a 10 ...

D & B12

Tom saw his doctor today. They were so backed up that he was there for 2 hours. The doctor wasn’t sipping on coffee during his exam this time around but he made a call and took a call from a pati...

Greta vs. Mia

My stomach is better, but still not normal. I definitely regret getting the damn gallbladder removed. It wasn’t a life-or-death situation, and I should have known better than to think that it wou...

Sleep Apnea

I now officially have two sleep disorders, one treatable and one not. Yes, as expected, I have mild borderline sleep apnea. I’m going to be fitted with a CPAP machine soon enough. Probably not ti...
