Thanks & Terry

[Guest guest]

Thanks so much for your always helpful input ladies. Even if my case isn't the

worse, it's bad enough for me.....and it helps so much to get informed insights

from those down in the trenches with me!

It's just amazing to me how quickly all my numbers did shift around from the low

dosage I've been on. Since I've been on the 5mgs. for 2 days now, I guess I'll

stick with that for this month and see where it takes me. I did waffle around a

bit the first day and took 7.5....but as I said I wasn't feeling too spiffy and

would like to bounce back from this stage I'm in....if this is hypo give my

hyper any day. :-)

I am getting new labs in another month. My endo is seeing me monthly for

now.....which is good. And I've already told him I would want antibodies checked

before I would consider stopping the meds Alison, even if I am in the " normal "

range. Even told him why. He just smiled and said okay, whatever makes me happy.

LOL Can't really complain about him too much then I guess, as I only wish some

of the other people in my life told me the same, especially my teenagers at

home.

About pill splitting....would you believe I'm so anal that I am splitting those

5mg babies into 6 sections Terry? Well, I am that anal! LOL It's maybe not the

most precise cuts, but I don't have too much of a problem with crumbling. And

that way I still take my dose 3 times a day. What kind of pill cutter do you

have? Mine is this little blue number, and has this v-shaped guide that the pill

pushes up into on the base. It's sometimes tricksy aligning the halves to cut

evenly into 3rds....but I seldom have a lot of powder to show for my efforts.

:-) I may shift my dosage to 2x daily once I am at a level with all my tests

where I feel good and I've been there for a bit.

Have the best of all possible evenings you two. And thanks again!
