As some of you know, I [FINALLY] got in to see the endocrinologist last month. To make a long story short, he decided to put me on Synthroid, with an appointment to come back January 14th, after going and getting blood work done a week before. I started the medication November 14th, and have only forgotten to take it once since then (pretty good, considering I was awfully sick for about a week in there). I feel like I'm starting to benefit at least a little bit from the medication. My thinking is somewhat clearer, I feel notably happier, and I have a general sense of things going better (although I can't quite place what).
However, I'm still feeling fatigued nearly all the time, and the brain fog is just beginning to lift. It can take a while for the medication to fully take effect, so I must be patient. Plus, I just had a cold, and it can take a while to fully bounce back from those.
I really hope taking this makes it easier for me to lose weight. I've gotten to where I can accept and be fairly happy with the way I look, but I'd like to get in shape so I can keep up with the boys as they grow! I can already tell at least Micah will be an athlete, probably a baseball pitcher, judging by his surprising accuracy with throwing.
