Sometimes, I think, life just has to kick people around a bit before it lets them get up and get on with it. I hope your kicking time is through. Stay rested and our thoughts are with you.

am kicking, today is rough hit the bottom of the hypothryoid state soo i can do the rest of treatments. feels like being hit by a bulldozer and then a truck and then and then etc..
but the light at the end of the tunnel is near, doc says i should be able to get back to normal life in less than a month and a half.
now if i can stick to this damn low iodine diet, its harder than atkins.

not yet bouncing, but getting more motivated though, new respect for women who have hit the change.

isn't it amazing what tiny amounts of hormones/chemicals can do and what a fine balance it takes to make most people go?
or not go, as it happens sometimes.
keep on those doctors till you get the right balance back, Walrus. don't settle for anything less, because they WANT you to (settle for minimum)!! even more so because this is your nickel. you deserve to be bouncing!
