BRAIN FOG?

Let me just state one thing. Everyone speaking of "brain-fog" has a different description when using this word "brain-fog." Mine is this comparable to when you see an eye-doctor and he dilates your eyes: you lean your head back and he drops a few drops into your eye-balls. And, for myself, this is what I feel like when I have brain-fog, which I can wake up with and have on a different level all through the day. I know when it is completely gone because there is no longer a feeling of weakness, which I always get just before it strikes me. It's usually "cured" (never fully) when I take my next T3 dose, which bothers me because I don't remember getting any "brain-fog" when I was on T-4 only but, then, that so long ago I hate to think of it. I'm on T4-T3 for the past 2 years and, as usual, having bad days and good days, mostly bad these days, and wishing to get back to one pill. as, aren't we all? I've tried everything but NDT but, after trying everything else, over 30 years will probably give it a shot just to say I tried everything I could, even though my endo is fully against it. Peace be to us all in these times.
