      May God bless you and keep you in perfect peace. Here are some encouraging bible verses to uplift you. Remember, faith moves mountains and you can get through anything in the name of Jesus. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27:1 Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord. Psalm 31:24 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, "With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible." Matthew 19:26 For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness. Psalm 18:28 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. Psalm 34:4 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7 Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee; he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. Psalm 55:22 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. Philippians 4:13 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1

      Your labs are going to show your hypo for sure. Tell your co-workers your on a drug similar to chemo and if they can't support you thru this difficult time to F off. Once your thyroid settles down the weight will come off don't worry about that too much. I took RAI in 78 and because I'm active and my job is physical weight hasn't been a problem. When your first diagnosed they overdose you for some reason same theing happened to me on PTU but after passing out on my typewritter my boss called the doc and got it chged immediatly. Depending on your choice of treatment and how long your willing to try and go into remission they usually don't want you to go more than 3yrs on ATDs. I have worn 28 and 29 levis for forty yrs until this last year at 56 I figure I can wear a size 10 and 30 levis and its ok. So please don't stress about the weight it will come off once your thyroid is either destroyed or you go into remission. Stress is your enemy now I found biofeed back and selfhypnosis and deep relaxation and meditation will get you thru this and prayer. Your not alone in this please don't forget that and talk to your endo about dosing you so your able to continue your life without feeling like crap. How's your skin and hair? You nedd to educate yourself completly about this disease so you can make the choices for yourself ask your doc about what info he can provide and where you can get unbiased information and try to stay calm. Take care feel free to ask me anything and hang in there you will be ok and life does get better just try not to stress. Hugs Mary
