Sorry for no new post yesterday! I actually was producing 2 vlogs and also started a blog post when my computer gave me the blue screen of death. Defeated and tired, I sulked on to bed. I’ll get some of the stuff back up later tonight.
In the meantime, I wanted to quickly mention that I got bloodwork results back in yesterday from when I went to see the doctor about my pitting edema. Thankfully, my liver and kidneys are fine, however the doctor wrote that my thyroid shows signs of being underactive and that I need to get re-tested within the next 6 weeks. I’ve had thyroid tests before as we’ve tried to figure out why my weight loss can be really slow, but this is the first time its come up as “abnormal.” In some small way, I hope that this *might* be true so I can get on medicine that might help my body work how it’s supposed to!
Editing to add: I’m going to get my 2nd blood test done on Friday. Will talk with doc and see what he says about the first results and also my ongoing pitting edema.
Anyone had experience with underactive thyroid?
