ah man... Thyroid Issues bite...

[Guest guest]

I just wanted to post a woe-is-me message...

I'm still at a lower dose of Armour - 2.25 grains.. ...

have to be re-tested in 4 weeks...

and I've been on the DHEA supplement for about 2 weeks now...

and the B supplement.. and Iron..

and I'm gaining weight... It's not a lot.. but just enough to make my

clothes a bit tight...

frustrating when I thought I had stabilized...

I know we are all in the same boat... and I just wanted to vent that

this really bites!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Hi ..

I don't have a cycle.. I'm 34... but due to drastic hormonal imbalances

during my TOM... My gyno put me on back to back pills...

Ironically that was looonnngg before thyroid diagnosis.. I've thought

aobut going back to having a TOM.. just to see what it would be like.

Plus, the doc i've been seeing said she would test all my sex hormones,

but I have to be off the pill for a month...

hmm.... it just might be worth it..

My weight it just starting to creep back up.... it's only 3 pounds..

but it's happened over the past 2-3 weeks..

I guess I've just really realized that with thyroid issues.. 3 pounds

can be an issue.. meaning that I don't have the same ability as others

to just watch what I eat for a few days and drop the 3 pounds... If

that makes sense...

I do understand. I’ve lost 20

pounds since February. In the past 3 weeks, I’ve been playing with the

same 1 pound…very frustrating when I have so much more to lose.

Especially since I am on Weight Watchers. So I know that I should be losing.
