  i was out late last night and completely forgot to take my meds. I take 5mg Methimazole once a day. I’m thinking I should wait until tonight and just take my regular dose, rather than taking last night’s dose this morning and my regular dose tonight, right? Is it better to miss one dose entirely than take basically double the dose in a day? My last labs came back normal, so I don’t want to screw up the progress I’ve made!

  New normal

  My levels are now in the normal range, so apparently this is my new normal. My energy level is low, but I suspect it was my hyperactive thyroid that gave me the energy I used to have. I now need to figure out what I am now capable of...try various activities and see what does not wipe me out completely. I am glad the meds worked, and have been reduced. But I know this is just the beginning, and there will be plenty of ups and downs ahead. I look forward to living a somewhat normal life again.

  So sorry you feel so down and lonely right now. I hope you find people who can be the support you need, that we all need. I'm only a stranger on the internet, but wanted you to know there are people out there lifting you up.

  I don’t want this

  Who does, right? But that’s all I can think as it continues to sink in that this is now my life. I was feeling pretty “normal” for a couple weeks. Last Sunday I binged on junk and paid dearly for it by being violently sick. Okay, no biggie, motivation to eat healthier! But I’ve been “good” all week and today I feel like crap. Tired. Nauseous. Depressed. I don’t want this! I want my life back. I want to eat what I want. Walk my dog. Do crazy intense workouts. Not worry every day...
