Hi Everyone~

Just want know what lies ahead.  I am feeling so drained today.  Do not know if it is just from having 2 majors sugeries in 2 weeks or if I am starting to go hypo.  I see the endo next Wed..  Will I be able to function?  Drive my kids to school?  Will I expierence any type of pain?  

Thank you all so much for all the support you have given me!  I am so very thankful.

~hugs~

It depends.

I was working half days when my TSH was 120.

When I had RAI my TSH was 42, and I couldn't drive very well. My wife had to take me to the appointment, and then try not to get contaminated getting me home. I was pretty sick. Plus, it was a 100 mile drive.

It depends on what your body has already been through.
You may not get too ill before your TSH hits a level the Endo says is good. 30 is what they shoot for, I think.

You should not plan on taking care of the kids, or cooking the meals. Plan on laying in bed for a few days, and if it is better than that, good for you!
