Guest guest Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Val, 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. GOD HOW I WISH I HAD LISTENED SOONER. Now the end result is that they took a person with hashi's (already low thyroid) and gave me anti-thyroid meds and now the suffering is unbelievable. I would never have understood how bad hypo can be if this hadn't happened to me. I noticed today too that my goiter is much bigger and I'm having trouble swallowing. I was just reading the stories on Stop Thyroid madness under the mental health/depression stuff and I just cried. This is what hypo is mostly doing to me now, esp. with SAD. There was a woman on there who talked about how bad her SAD was until she got on T3. Now I just hope to God I can be patient enough to get thru this and be able to tolerate the T3. What I really cannot believe is that my son is coming home for Christmas from Belgium after being gone one year and is going to come home Saturday and find me like this. I was in such great shape when he left last January and he was so happy. I can't believe this would all happen now. I cannot function. I keep thinking how before the methimazole during the summer I was back to work, back to school and happy and living a full life. I wish I had listened to you sooner and stopped taking that stuff long before I did. (really needed to vent tonight) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
