I enjoyed my hiatus-it was very restful and helpful in getting thoughts together about making future life decisions. I missed everyone's posts and enjoyed reading all your responses. I feel I have a lot of friends here on my thyroid and AF forums.. Glad to be back. Take care all. irina

Good to see you back. Have missed your wisdom. Hope you are doing well and making progress. X
You should now be full of energy and ideas
Hi shaws. I wrote a new thread that was deleted. Not a problem but I included a line in there meant for you. Just wanted to thank you for turning me on to the book "Tears Behind Closed Doors". Just pulled up a post you sent me to let you know it looks like a book that could do with a reprint and some good marketing to get it out to more thyroid patients. Didn't know where else to post. Thanks again. irina😊
It might very well be a book pubished sometime ago but it is definitely worth a read of someone's long journey to be diagnosed which led to her being another 'woman on a mission'. I believe she's retired some time ago.
I saw they have both some new and used copies on amazon so will look into that. I believe it was printed in 2002. I usually don't browse my public libraries because for the most part here (US) libraries don't usually have non-fiction books I'm interested in reading. Don't mean to come across as a 'book-snob' but they buy for the masses (lots of 'light summer reading!') I do have a short list of out of print book sources I use. It takes them some time to find books but eventually the book I want turns up. I believe they have a lot of used bookstore resources.
Welcome back, Irina !
Glad you're back, Irina
Hi Irina. Nice to see you back 😊 I seem to remember you'd found a good Endo & was hopeful you'd get the support you needed. I hope your thyroid health is making progress.

It is. He has turned out to be great. He actually listens to my input and lets me try things I think of if they are not harmful.

I first saw him in early April. He did total workup including a couple of things I didn't think about. I'm feeling much better and meds are slowly being adjusted. I just noticed the post about levothyroxine being recalled in the US so sent him a note to find out more. Only saw it a few minutes ago. No details yet. Thank you for asking and hope you are doing well too. Take care. xx irina
OMG. I think I just accidentally learned how to create paragraphs on my computer!
