Those Generic Flu Like Symptoms!

So the 6 month follow up for my thyroid was productive. My numbers had spiked again (putting me high, even by the old scale). So the doc doubled my dosage. Just like the first time I started taking medication, it took a lot longer than I expected to start seeing any difference.

I'm still seeing some hair loss, but my energy levels aren't as bad as they were. I'm not as achy... oh, and screw the weight loss thing. I've given up trying to lose weight. I simply can't care about it. I'm trying to stay active and eat healthy, but the stress of trying to lose weight, with no results, just frustrates me and I stop completely. Not a good thing. It's more important to just be healthy. I can live being 40 lbs overweight.

While I am feeling better, I'm still dragging a bit. I describe it like I'm just about to come down with a bug. You know that achey tired feeling you get when you run a low grade fever? That's kind of how I've been living my life... and for some time now. To the point that it feels "normal" to me. It does make the workouts a struggle. So I'm guessing we still need to tweak the medication a bit, but it's just a quality issue at this point.
