Figuring out the thyroid thing, way back on Ought Five, was HUGE for me. I kept it in good check for a long time, it got wonky again basically when I stopped waking up at night to nurse Ingrid and I started missing pills, but I've made a really concerted effort in the last few months to get my pill in, every day. I have taken to eating breakfast at work, so that it goes down on an empty stomach, and I keep a few pills at work in case I forget to pop one before I leave the house. Still, though, I've been feeling crappier and crappier. I had my TSH tested about 6 weeks ago, and it was above 2, but I figured I'd just wait til I saw my doc at my annual appointment to discuss it. That was last week, and I had my blood drawn today for another check, and I'm really interested to see what the number is. I mean, I was ready to take a nap while doing my group power class, tonight, just bone tired. That along with my skin drying up, my hair falling out more and graying more, GI issues, etc… man, I really hope a tweak of my meds helps.

Anyway, in other news, driving home from the Y, I heard about Obama's grandmother and almost cried. What a sad way to spend the day before the election. I really hope she read 538.com.
