Yeah.. lost two pounds .. that is one benefit of root canal LOL.  This tooth hasn't been right for 2 weeks so that's 1 lb per week ... I guess I haven't been "snacking" and only eating as necessary since I'm still only chewing on one side. But it was a success and everyday the abscessed area is better!!!

Now on 62.5mcgs vs. 75mcgs of synthroid for my thyroid (having had a partial thyroidectomy it isn't functioning and need the synthroid to live) with TSH of 2.4 vs. 1.3    .....  lovely ...... I feel well on the reduced dosing but now gained 5lbs for no reason other than being more hypo vs. hyper but according to bloodwork they consider all these TSH #'s to be normal which just blows me away .. what is normal for one is NOT normal for another.  My docs are good and get it and understand, but so many people's docs are just clueless.  Such a shame when I read this daily on the thyroid forum .. such a shame..we all feel our best at different levels.

One more step closer to really making a comittment to lose it I guess.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

DX'd with a severe Vit D Defficiency with no underlying cause other than less sun exposure since having an early Melanoma removed in '07.

Thyroid tests are fantastic.  Had a partial thyroidectomy in '07 but the VIt D is not related. YEAH!!!!!

So, let's see how it goes from here ... 50% of my symptoms which led me to my doc are gone from an undiagnosed UTI (Cipro) and the other 50% may be from this Vit D.

Wonder if the unexplained Wt. Gain the past 2 yrs is a factor.

WE shall see!
