Soooo.....what's it like to bounce between low & high thyroid levels...let me just tell a little bit about my life thus far. Forgive me as I complain a bit.

-Exausted by 9:30, but still can't go to bed because of all the reading I need to do. Go to bed at 11:00, wake up at 8:30...yikes! Way to late.
-Not hungry....is eating really necessary to live?
-Wow...if any more hair falls out I may have to go for Rogaine!
-This is the third time I sat down to the computer...what was I going to do...go and do the first random thing that comes to mind as I don't have enough short term memory to know that I even made a to do list...oh yeah...I was going to e-mail missionaries....why am I at the computer again?
-Blood shot eyes...yeah...now I see why people think I'm on drugs...not to mention all the holes in my arms for all the blood they've taken! :0
-Take a full ten seconds to finish a thought on the phone.
-Blue fingers...all the time
-Strange skin
-Feeling like I'm having a heart attack
-Hard time swollowing
-Almost drop things that are heavy and have a hard time opening a pop can.

Now for the advantages..I always have to be positive!
-Great excuse to do nothing but watch movies
-Great excuse for crying over a sappy movies....which rarely happens!
-Food bill goes down
-The requirement of throwing planning out the window!
-Cranking up the heat and not feeling guilty about it!
-Calling or e-mailing somebody twice in one day...they feel honored...ummm...let's keep it a secret that it's just because I didn't remember I e-mailed them that morning.
-Giving old people a hug and TRULY understanding what they are going through!
-Kicking back and doing lots of reading for school...and having plenty of -leah-gagging time when I can't concentrate!
