Some good news today.

I have been slowly putting the pieces together about what is going on with me.  Through research, and several very wise women, I am getting confirmation that the horrendous way I have been feeling isn't all in my head after all.  One very large piece of the puzzle may be the medication that I am using, that I must use every single day.  I'm not going to get too medical-doctorly here and bore ya'll to tears, but suffice it to say that synthetic thyroid may give you only enough of what you need to exist, but not any of what you need to truly live.  I had a long conversation with my cousin Sherry today, and the answer to my prayers may just lie in getting my hands on some Armour thyroid.

So, it is back to the drawing board for me.  The quest starts tomorrow to find a doctor who will actually treat all of my symptoms, and not just the most obvious ones.
