Guest guest Posted July 15, 2005 Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 , your under-active thyroid could be why you can't lose weight. I know I have the same problem and my thyroid is under-active (all on it's own, no radiathion treatment needed for mine). I'm on pills too, but I think they may need to raise my dosage. I'm going to talk it over with my doctor to see. Anyways, I miss talking with you. Give your girls hugs for me Kimber -- Kimber Vallejo, CA hominid2@...

Guest guest Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 Hi Kimber: Yeah, I know that could be why, and I just had my dosage changed about 2 months ago. I honestly think he changed it the wrong way! I am going to talk to him about it next time I go. I'm alot more tired then I was before too. Don't know if that is why or it is just everything combined these days. I will give the girls hugs, thanks. Amy is getting ready for dorm life. She told me she is a bit nervous. I was surprised! Nothing usually gets to her. She is such a strong kid! I think once she gets to college everything will be fine. I miss talking to you too. Tell your mom I said hi, ok? Thanks! Talk to you soon....... Lots of Hugs, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ , your under-active thyroid could be why you can't lose weight.

Guest guest Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 , yeah, if your meds are making your thyroid less active then it should be, you would be more tired too. Exhaustion is one of the symptoms of hypothyroidism. Changing from high school to college is a big step, so I'm not surprised that Amy is at least somewhat nervous. I'm sure she'll adjust to it just fine. Hope to hear from you again. How are you doing (besides the thyroid isssue?) Kimber -- Kimber Vallejo, CA hominid2@...
