Let's post here anything you want to [[ vent ]] about that is thyroid related ...

We've all had a rather unusual trying day on this community with some disruptive posts that I truly believe spilled over into other people's posts today in ways which never would have occured if not for the lack of continuity which we experienced.

So go for it here .. VENT HERE .. VENT VENT VENT .. get it all out so we start out fresh tomorrow .. we are family .. and we will remain as such .... anything you want to talk about that is thyroid related go for it here .. VENT AWAY I SAY .. VENT VENT (save the non-thyroid stuff for the big even tomorrow night at TGIF @ thyroid Pub)

Isn't that the SWAG method of dosing?  I know that one, and I've had that rant myself!  Don't you wish it were even somewhat of an exact science?  I've been on more than 6 med changes since November '07!  It gets old, the waiting.  Ok, now let's guess this, then wait 6 weeks of your LIFE, and then we'll "guess" again...

But I am getting better at diagnosing myself as hypo...  Man, agreeing with all your "rants" is making me feel so much better!... Let's all make Lemonaid now...(cause that's what you won for using the word of the day...) then we'll hold hands and sing kumbaya!  LOL!

My rant is doctors just 'trying things' to see what will happen. After 14 months of trying to get me "euthyroid" (I used the word of the day- what do I win??) on methimazole and finally getting there for two months in a row. My doctor decides- hey I bet you are cured let's take you off all medication and see what happens- come back in a month.  I am cured! Hooray!!  Well, 2 1/2 weeks later I feel awful and get my blood tested at a TSH of .0025  - and then had to double up meds to get me back on track in a hurry.  guess I am not cured afterall....

Sorry I was unable to vent last night... I was knee deep in shatty diapers!!!! Thats what happens when you start your 6 month old on solids!!! MORE POOP!!!

Well... my vent would have to be feeling a little better after stopping the Synthroid to start Armour, but I was told to not take the Armour for 5 days and now I feel like I am tired, achy, headaches and I still have these #@^%& palps and they are starting to freak me out!!!!!

So.... now I called my Cardio dr to just make sure the ticker is fine tune!!!

ANOTHER DOCTOR VISIT!!!
