I was doing OK ?

[barrettsark]

Well I have been feeling pretty good for about a week and 1/2.  I have been slowly weaning off the klonipin and was down to only taking .25 mg.  Sunday I stopped taking it.  I've been fine no trouble sleeping but I have been feeling very tired through out the day again.  But this morning I woke up feeling very jittery and shaky.  Not sure what this is?   Do you think it's because the klonipin is getting out of my system.  The doctor said I was not on a large enough does to have any problems.  Or is the klonipin really masking the symptoms of my thyroid?  I'm going to the endo on moday.

[barrettsark]

Well I went yesterday and she would not test my free's or my antibodies.  She did order the adrenal test that I wanted and totals ,TSH.  I'm going this morning to get all of this done.  Not any good tips to pass on to you.  I'm sorry.

[Jennifer1987]

GOOD LUCK!!! If you get any tips pass them on LOL!!!

[barrettsark]

Well tomorrow is my appointment with my Endo.  I can't wait to see how this is going to go.  My mother is coming with me.  She had been helping my research hypothyroidism so I can get some help tomorrow.  I hope she will listen to me and order all the test that I want her to.  I'll let you know tomorrow how it goes.

Well when they do be sure to pass it onto me! Id pay any amount to be me again! Ya it definithy *****! especially when people around you don't understand and you fell like your going mad! Thats me at the moment! Then when people say get over it I get really moody and definsive!  Im not a mood person like I used be really HAPPY!

I'm only 29 and I have five beautiful Children to watch grow up and there are days that I feel like dieing.  It suck that any of us have to live like this.  I pray that one of my Children find a cure for this...

Well make sure they are well up on the sympotoms so they can catch it in time if they do get it. My friend made a dvd of all pictures from college over the last 4 years... I was in tears cause I had the time of my life now I wish I could just snap out of this whole hypo thing. Not that easy though!  Im 21 and want to die now!!!

[barrettsark]

I total get you.  I say the same thing to my husband.  Only I want to be the person I was four months ago.  I'm going to the Endo on Monday and I'm going to ask about T3.  I'm reading it can really help alot.  I have given birth to five children and hypothyroidism is the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with.  I have been falling asleep at the drop of a dime I had to pull over the Van the other day and lay my head down for a few minutes because my eyes were shouting while driving.   I hope my daughters will not have to deal with this.

I have headaches to...But what has really set me back is the muscle pain I had all week Its seemed to have gotten better but I was close to tears a lot of the time. feel a small bit down lately and stil anxious! Just want to be ME again. the person I was this time last year... I miss it sooooo much. I felt normal then!

[barrettsark]

Ya your not kidding.  I just wish everything would go away.  I've been getting headaches also.

[Jennifer1987]

I would say it was maksing symptoms. Or maybe your body is adjusting to not having it. Iv began to realsie that the body is REALLY complex. A small problem can cause massive symptoms!!!!
