Guest guest Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 , Don't " should " on yourself. You are listening now. Can you get some Iodoral? That will help to shrink your goiter. And when you get on enough T3, that will help too. I usually have SAD and was on an antidepressant until mow that I am nearly optimized on Armour, HC, and iron for my low ferritin. I'm weaned off of Celexa now and not having any depression. Your son will just be happy to see you. Hang in there, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think that those with no experience of depression cannot begin to comprehend the depth of pain. Conversely, those who have suffered it will be sympathetic. I don't know how you can turn this around (guess Val is your person for that) but I do want you to know that I am sending you really, really good vibes. For what it's worth, I care.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Thank you; you are very kind to respond. I am hanging in there and getting up my ferritin and waiting for my cytomel to arrive with high hopes I'll be able to tolerate it and get some relief from all of this. Happy Holidays Re: should have listened > As I sit in this horrific state of depression, I think about how I > wish I had listened to you back in August when you were telling me > that my symptoms were not HyperT but rather low adrenal (since I had > reduced the cortef) and NOT to take methimazole.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 God bless , thanks for posting, I have been suffering badly for the last 3 months but being able to share and read others posts such as yours leaves me feeling less alone. I have spent almost 4 seperate weeks in hospitals in the last 2 months and have been treated less than compassionately..being accused of suffering from anxiety or perhaps hypocondria etc etc and therefore not warranting any real attention..I tell myself one day this thyroid-adrenal business will get the press it deserves and hate to admit it but I have wished some of the medics/nurses could feel like I have... All the best to you Sara > Thank you; you are very kind to respond.
