Remember??....... When it gets c o l d e r outside.... your thyroid meds could need a tune up! It's very common you may need an adjustment (increase) in your thyroid meds when the weather starts to get blustery.... This FEELING of bodily coldness may NOT be caused by just colder weather coming! Our basal temps and hormones get lazy in the winter months.
A vitamin D-3 supplement may be helpful too as the dark days of winter approach us. Check out a winter supplement package to keep you well. We winterize our vehicles!!!!... We must do it for our bodies too!
We all can't live near the equator to absorb the right amount of sunshine to keep our hormones stable for us "snow birds” We need to trick our bodies into thinking we are there! Vit D is our "Happy Hormone".
No one likes to hear it - , but, mild exercise and keeping your metabolism revved is very important at this time of year. A little meditation and yoga certainly lifts the spirits and will allow us to keep a light heart when we are out there.
A smile is worth a thousand words and it is very contagious... Keep smiling through it all :)
Take care thyroidians... Hug your families and get the hugs back from them ...... and your cyber Med Help family!
Smiling at all of you..... Stella5349

Thank God I live in Texas where we get loads of sunshine. D pills just don't work for me. There are a few months here where it's too cold to sunbathe in shorts. I was thinking of getting a sun lamp. Does anyone recommend a particular brand?

Yep. My Vit D is year round tuneup with emphasis on Winter The dark winter days certainly won't help with exposure. Ugh. I find, too, seasonal adjustments to my Synthroid, with my Docs permission, has been the case.
