I need to get my Levothyroxine dose increased - I think !
Hello people, what a great forum - I have only now found the confidence to post here, and I really need some advice.

Sorry, slightly off topic. I do my daughters B12 injections for her, she has a needle phobia. She has just come out of hospital since an operation and is required to have 42 days of blood thinning injections, which I do each day at 7pm. There are some days where I really cannot be available.. she

I looked at my face
Well I just had a birthday. I decided that this year I am going to take really good care of my skin. I never look at my whole face and I never look at my body- self loathing.
