Uhhh, guess I should update...

...well now. It's been a year and a half since I had my TT. Are my TSH levels "level" yet? Um, no. They are STILL adjusting the dose. Most currently back in January, the endo. reduced the amt. from 125mcg to 112mcg after my TSH came back at .03. I'm not thinking it is really a good change. Noticing way too much lightheadedness, slower resting heart rate, night sweats, fatigue....overall feeling blah.

And, it's official. I'm hypocalcemic. My para's were damaged in surgery apparently, and I am now on 25mg of Calcitrol every day in addition to 1800mg of calcium *sigh*

Which is ironic. Because calcium and Synthroid cannot be taken within 4 hours of each other or neither works right. Makes my life really freaking interesting I tell ya.

My scar has faded significantly. Those silicone sheets do work! Well hell, here...here is a pic of it now...

And so...nothing else really to add. Still on this damn journey that seems to NEVER end.
