Guest guest Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 Hi Ladies, How true is that! I now realise that the h/c was not the main culprit but the 1/2 grain increase. Boy, I am still feeling the effects. Tummy all upset, general feeling of hyper, i am still on 1 and 1/2 grains instead of 2 but thinking tomorrow maybe i should lower it evern more....... the h/c probably contributed also. I just a programme on CNN about anti-aging and living longer etc. and they said that the less calories a person consumes the longer they will probably live. I got to thinking, are we shortening our life being hypo? do u think we have less chance of living a long life because of our thyroids. ? Someone please say no !!! Lots of thanks and best wishes SheilaF > You are exactly right! Too much too soon, and the higher the dose goes, the > tighter the dosage range.

Someone please say no !!!<< Well only some good news here! STAYING hypo will definitely shorten your life span. Treating it properly I think you have as good a chance at long life as anyone. The longer you remain in hypo state the more damage to your long term health. Much is reversible on the proper treatment, I am living proof of that!

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 At my company, we just got new life insurance.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 Wow thats interesting, but scary. When i took out my travel insurance before coming to the US i told them about my td and they said its not a problem and that they dont worry about it if it is properly medicated.
