Scandinavia, end of October and I'm still wearing t-shirts! Pottering in the garden this morning, temperature 5.4 degrees and I didn't feel cold. Normally this time of the year I would be wearing 2 jumpers....and that's indoors. :-D

Leabrook, not overmedicated are you? ;) ;)

Definitely not Clutter. :-) Doc increased my levo to 125mcg almost 3 weeks ago when my results were ft3 4.5 (3.1 - 6.8), ft4 18.9 (12.0 - 22.0), tsh 3.36 (0.4 - 3.7). He actually said that he wanted to see the tsh around 0.5 and I think he's on the right track. By the way, 5.4 degrees here does not feel so cold as 5.4 would feel like in the UK....sounds crazy but it's true. :-D

Leabrook, I was teasing but you're certainly not undermedicated and your GP is definitely on the right track.

It's unseasonably warm here, might hit low 20s weekend. Very grey though and it'll be dark in an hour :(

It's dark here now but we are an hour in front of the UK. It's 3.8 outside so I've just lit the woodburner. :-)

It looks as if you've reached the 'magic' number in that your metabolism is now able to work normally.

I'm happy for you.

Thank shaws...I hope so. It will come in handy when we get to minus 20 or more. :-D
