Got my bloodwork done yesterday. I don't have the actual results yet, just the call from my Endo confirming I am now hypO - 6 weeks post RAI. Will take synthroid (I think?) and she says not to go generic because of the variablilty in generic brands. Starting out at 75mcg. Actually missed her call, but I'll call or email her later today when I get a free moment.
For some reason, even though I knew based on my symptoms that the RAI worked and I was going hypO, I cried at the news. I cried!
I didn't get much sleep last night - haven't for the last few nights. Exhaustion could be wreaking havoc on my emotions. That and stress - work has been SO stressfull all month, and in my personal life dealing with my ADHD son, and his dad who is on a power trip so large he is making us both spend thousands of dollars on a Child and Family Investigator (CFI), who is just going to tell the Court what I've been saying for 9 years, and I can barely afford to pay the mortgage, let alone shell out a grand for a retainer for this person...
I know stress is not good with GD.
And in fact I have to go now because I have a training conference call ...
