FLO is coming and boy am I feeling her approaching. Kind of like a hurricane or tropical storm making its way through!!! UGH!!

Whats it gonna be today??

Hi All!!

I haven't been on for awhile for many reasons.. I have been moving, computer was down and I have just been so busy!! I am actually doing very well! I have my days.. WHEN FLO IS APPROACHING!!! Damn her!! But other than that, I am thrilled with how I am feeling. Saturday night we have a music festival here called Lollapolooza and I was out until midnight and still had energy! My hubby and I had the time of our lives and he said with tears in his eyes, I FINALLY GOT YOU BACK!!!!! At least for now!! We danced the night away like we were 20 years young again!!

Anywho...I am on Armour and it has saved my livelihood!! I am now on 90 mgs and my Dr is working with me on when I am symptomatic! I have got him to see the symptom side rather than just numbers side!! I'm due for my period in about 11 days and so far so good!! I have some anxious days, but I can't complain.

The anxiety and panic have pretty much disappeared. I know that they can appear in a flash without warning, but I have been doing great without their company!! I am just enjoying life again and so very blessed with my progress. I know that I can fall as fast as I came through, but I am really trying to be positive and take it as it comes!!

I hope you are all well and wish each and everyone of you the success and progress that has blessed me. I am here if anyone should need me!!

Love,
MK

Well... I have come to the conclusion that I FLAT OUT HAVE ANXIETY RELATED TO HEALTH ISSUES!! I know that this whole thyroid mess can do this to our bodies whether we are HYPO/HYPER, but yesterday evening we had to take our 3 year old to the ER cause she has been complaining about itching and crying uncontrollably. SO... this brought on my anxiety pretty badly. I started thinking the worst and then thinking that I have been itching and the what if's  BLAH BLAH BLAH!! So we got home around 9. I thought I was fine and then all of a sudden BAM, couldnt breathe, shaking uncontrollably, heart palps...and FEAR AND PANIC!!! I took an Ativan and I tried to calm myself. Wanted to run to the ER but worked it out. It was awful and I truly believe it had nothing to do with my meds or thyroid. I finally fell asleep about 1.5 hours later. Woke this morning feeling good. This just stinks and makes me so sad!! Should I go on an antideressant or not? I heard that when on meds for the thyroid, its can intertwine themselves..

Well I have been somewhat symptomatic the last few days but thinking its my period. I am spotting and I have been aware that when FLO is coming or has arrived, the palps start a little and I get some brain fog!!! Hopefully I am starting to see things a little as they should be.
