Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 I get tired, but that doesn't make me " sick " does it? I already take medicine for cholesterol, high BP, and one " other thing " in ya know what i mean. What the heck do I need a medicine for just for a blood test being off if I don't feel sick? I might just be being stubborn, but it seems more bother and expense over a " tiredness:? B. > > > > > > Hello. My name is and have been feeling overly tired and dragged > > out.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 , I think a lot of us here just started out with what seemed like ordinary " tiredness " but without the proper treatment, we became sick, many of us extremely ill. Another thought I had when reading your post...often cholesterol, BP, and the " other thing " are out of whack BECAUSE of low thyroid function. Getting thyroid levels optimized can sometimes kill all those birds with one stone...just food for thought... > > I get tired, but that doesn't make me " sick " does it?

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2006 Report Posted March 20, 2006 Hi Kate, I guess my doc just didn't make a big deal out of it so I figure this pill was just another money maker. I don't have any friends with this disease that are men and it's just not my way to ask a lady about her problems. Is there a book or site y'all know of I can do some research? thanks, B. > > > > > > > > > > Hello. My name is and have been feeling overly tired and dragged > > > > out.
