Update

[HC17]

Hi everyone, my sincere apologies for the delayed response. By the time I was able to reply, I was locked out due to my delay. Slow Dragon however has been providing mountains of support via PM whilst waiting for my account to be unlocked.

The last week has been extremely emotional for me, due to the messages flooding in from you all. For the first time in nearly 2 years, I have hope, and believe that my Thyroid problem will get better, and that my poor state of health, and life which has been existing, not living, might come back. Your stories, whilst sad and frustrating for what you have suffered, and many still do, there are so many successes. I reached out to you as a stranger, and it feels like you have ran to my aid to help me, you have no idea what you have done to me, and how me, my partner and my family are celebrating the positives, because of all of you.

I posted my bloods online to Slow Dragon, and did try and post on this main forum too. Based on my results, my other medication, and not told by my GP what I should and should not do prior, my results are null and void it seems. I have since had others taken yesterday, after following advice from you good people. In the meantime, I need to thank you all, for coming to my aid. The morning after I posted my mesaages, I was speechless and felt like a lottery winner what I found from you all. You are wonderful people helping me in my desperate need, and I can never thank you enough for what you have done for me so far, you have no idea. I will be back soon with my results this week, and will keep reading all these messages. I apologise for my delay, but my speed is very slow and delayed at present. You are all amazing people.

Oh I see now - I just thought it was an emergency incident of some kind. 🤷‍♀️

I used to be just Lora7 but I forgot all my log in details because I had a hyper episode. This is normal with thyroid disease and in the past I could not drive for 2 years because of blurred vision and I kept getting lost. This horrible disease can impact on so many aspects of your life. I hope you manage to get the right treatment and regain your health.
