Good news

by Tracieknits on 11 Mar 2013, 20:40

At least I know why I haven't lost any weight in two weeks despite being well-behaved. My labs came back and my thyroid slowing meds are too strong - my thyroid levels are actually too low now. The doctor reduced my dosage by 25%, so here's hoping the weight loss picks back up :-)

The last time this happened, the doctor ended up steadily reducing my dosage and eliminating it over about an 8 month period. Wish me luck! :clover:

Battling a naughty thyroid.

I suffer from the opposite, low thyroid. But I have just had rough time when my BP medication was doubled and I have felt awful. Back to the usual amount now thank goodness and BP down. Such a pain these medications, hopefully 5:2 will help us.
