Horrid day

I starved myself from 9pm last night to go for a blood test (under active thyroid) have been trying since January! The cold and windy weather is not good for me so I have put it off. Today I got in the car, drove down the road and then had to pull over as I could not get my breath. 10 mins later I just came home again. Feeling rotten all day and cold which is a sign that the thyroid needs are too low. Have to try for blood test next week!

Hi I have an under active thyroid for nearly 20 years and have never had to go on a fasting before my blood tests...have had to when having cholesterol checked....always a first time I suppose....yes feeling the cold and tired are classic signs that you have gone low and need your meds higher....take care hope you get it sorted soon....lots of hugs 🤗 to you....x

Thank you all. Today is a bit better but waking up in the middle of the night boiling hot and running with sweat was not much fun!
