Well, Its been one month on synthroid. I am doing well, okay. I started to grow my nails again. Its good. I am trying to beat out another infection, which most of you have helped me with. Thanks laura. I am only on 50mg, which is a pretty small dose, but it does help. I have cut out on my acid reflex pills. I am only taking a few pills besides my vitamins, and synthroid. Which is a relief from going to the cuboard constantly. I have lost some of the fluid retention, I still have lots more to go. Any ideas for that??????? I have one more antibiodic left to take, and then tomorrow, I am having one big stiff drink:) oooohhh and I have been sleeping the last week, whoo hooo!
