Hi Coleen.,
I've been busy elsewhere but think of you , more now that it's fall. :)

Officially in remission- antibody levels decreasing and feeling pretty good. Eyes act up here and there... I finally found the holy grail of doctors that know their thyroid information- came in the form of a high-risk pregnancy doc.

He's open to me bugging him about thyroid issues- welcomes it- and I have already taken him up on that :)
I've got a few embryos waiting for me in the freezer- looking to hopefully get pregnant soon!
How are you doing??? Miss seeing your comments around here!!! Hope work is calming down for you for a bit!!!
