- Looks like a bird's nest that a goat chewed.... Anyone have some good ideas? I do not want to cut it off.
- I am sure you can all understand.... It has been MONTHS now and the fibromyalgia keeps coming back again and again. Just when I think I am strong enough to get back on a consistent schedule at the gym, ONE relatively mild workout can get me wiped...
- I can't get an appointment until July 10th, but I will just hand on for dear life until then.This new one is actually in network and works with integrative and functional medicine.He does a lot of socially-conscious volunteer work and even became a...

- I am so glad I went to the doctor! We took a new blood test and I should know in a few days what turns up.I am glad to know this is probably not serious but WOW does it ever feel awful!The good news is that my blood pressure is pretty much back to...
- How did THAT happen? I have had these palpitations for a few days now - I thought it was due to too much caffeine, but I am back down now to a small amount in the morning.Should I insist that the doctor see me?
- Just wondering.... I am finding that the rigors of dealing with the chronic symptoms have had a real dampening effect on how I visualize my ideal life - I am not referring to my goals or my interests, but my ideas of what would be a "perfect life"...
- Just a quick progress report.... I have gone back to the gym and am doing everything I used to do when in top form, just LESS of it. I just grit my teeth (My teeth are one of the only places on my body that haven't been hurting) and worked...
- I have been doing so much better until suddenly last week I have been feeling like I have been hit by a truck.At least the brain fog appears to be gone, but this is bad enough to send me back to the doctor for another blood test. I will set up an...
- Over the past week, I decided to toss my Quest bars in favor of raw organic almonds and dried organic apricots.I THOUGHT it would be a healthier mid-morning snack.I couldn't figure out why I was feeling so "off" and fatigued - it was as if my meds...
- Has anyone tried it? What has been your experience? I have been cutting my pills in half and taking them at 2 different times in the day. Unfortunately, I seem to keep forgetting to take the 2nd half of the pill....Uh oh.Thanks!
- Got up to 98.6 this morning!!! Woooo Hoooo! Now it's back to 97.5, but it was nice while it lasted....Have a great day!
- Can't help but feel upset to see all the things I let slide or just plain messed up before I was properly titrated. I guess I should know better than to blame myself, but somehow I just can't help it. People depend on me and I feel like I have let...
- Just got it last night and it is like sleeping on an affectionate cloud. It seems to hug you in all the places that hurt. And because it is a natural product, there is no gassing off or noxious fumes. I still didn't quite mange to sleep through...
- I am looking at his results and I am thinking he might just be borderline hypo... but - what do I know..... I am also wondering if the right tests were taken - don't think I see Free T3 ????Would love your thoughts:TSH 4.470 (.450 - 4.50)Thyroxine...
