Guest guest Posted May 15, 2003 Report Share Posted May 15, 2003 Ok, So this is going to be a little rant. and i feel a bit like a 2-year- old throwing a temper tantrum... First of all, I don't want a scar. I like my neck just the way it is. And i like going out in the sun, and I'm not going to hibernate over the summer months! So i don't want a big, icky scar on my 22 year old neck! #2: I dont want to go hypo. I also like my thyroid the way it is (yes, it has a 2 cm malignant tumor on it...but hey, no one's perfect!). it works fine. i dont want to go up and down on hormones. i DONT want to gain weight. I didn't go through 5 months of therapy to overcome an eating disorder, get to a healthy weight, to baloon up. i dont want to get swollen and foggy, and tired. i have too much going on in my life for that! Furthermore, the idea of sitting in a room for 2 days becoming radioactive, and then having no human contact for 10 days does NOT appeal to me at all. Bottom line, I'm saying " no thanks " ...ya'll are great, but i just dont think this club is for me. why can't it just be that easy? you all are incredible. but i just dont think i have the strength to deal with this. this disease has already taken too much of my time and energy. thank you for listening to my rant.
