6 months of progress

Another month gone by and another follow up appointment attended.  My virals are high, and we will be addressing that on my next visit, after Dr. K. returns from the dinner and conferences he has scheduled.  This months task is to address my nonfunctioning (again) thyroid.  This is nothing new to me as I have been dealing with a hypothyroid for 20 years now.  However, he is smart enough, (or just well informed) to realize that both T3 AND T4 need fixing in order for everything to come together nicely and make me feel and work better.  I am also down 2 more pounds which is surprising given the hypothyroidism.  But this bodes well for continuing weight loss once we balance out my thyroid.

I am still on doxy and diflucan as well as a gazillion supplements (Travacor, Vit D, Parsley, Chlorella, zinc, probiotics, just to name a few).  If you have seen Sex and the City 2, and recall the scene with Samantha, you have a good visual of the amount of pills I swallow twice a day - and yes, I do swallow them all at once.
