I put my Hall of Fame entry in the mail this morning. I am not sure if I really have a chance, but at least I tried and feel like I accomplished something just by entering. Also I have 10 new scrapbook pages that I love that I wouldn't have made otherwise.
I also went to the Dr. this morning. Starting tomorrow morning I will be taking Synthroid, a thyroid hormone replacement. My test results show that I have a mild case of Hashimoto's disease, which is an auto-immune thyroid disorder. It is also hereditary. The Dr. said that without medication it would slowly become worse and with a second pregnacy become extremely problematic. Good thing I got this taken care of now. Now begins the process of figuring out what dosage I should take. Could take up to 2 months. He has started me on a low dosage which I will take for 2 weeks and then we will increase it until we find the amount that works best for me. Can't wait to feel normal again......or maybe for the first time?????

Good luck on HOF!
And I'm glad the dr. started you on meds. It always takes awhile for mine to get to the level I need them at. . . that stepping up every week or so is hard (so many of mine have weird side effects that I get)
