It's so weird to be happy there is something wrong with me. I must be my mother.

LOL, how funny!!

So now there's a light at the end of the tunnel. You are so right - VERY glad you didnt wait til March!

How long before the the blood test results to come back?

Hey, Vines -

I am so GLAD for you that now you have something to target that should actually have an effect! Three cheers for not dropping this, and for getting to the bottom of it so it can be fixed.

HarleyNana -

The article you posted

Re-programming your thyroid to produce more T-3 cells that rapid process fat seems to be the latest in a long line of new rapid weight loss methods for the dieter who just doesn't want to diet anymore.

sounds as though they're focusing on increasing the T-3 cells - this is what the Wilsons Thyroid Syndrome treatment focuses on, but by actually supplementing with T-3.

I wish there was a doc nearby that charged reasonable prices for me to try this therapy... It really makes sense to me.

Alas... lol

I am supposed to get banded on July 25th.:clap2: I am Hypothyroid and on 224mcg. of levoxyl for 12 years. My TSH is all over the place, still! I"m tired all the time, but if my levoxyl is upped any, I can't nod off to sleep! My TSH is w/i normal range currently, but who knows what tomorrow brings? I think I have Hashimoto's thyroiditis, whatever that is. I sure hope & pray banding works for me! I"m gaining by leaps and bounds!
