Guest guest Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 AH!!! True Love! Just remember that there are a lot of sick people out here that have no time for games. If you want to play who is on top take it off the club.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 D999, I really disagree with your objection to Chuck and Gracia kidding around. Even sick people need to laugh once in awhile. It can be tremendously helpful!!!!

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 I agree with you completely, Venizia. It feels good to lighten up and laugh.

D999--- At least Gracia and I have the netiquette to sign our posts, even when we are debating the merits of iodine. I think between the two of us, we probably post as much, if not more, technical advice than anyone else on the list. Did you just get out of the wrong side of the bed this morning?

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 No not on the wrong side of the bed. I am just happy to get out of the bed. LOL I also read the post about no more hope. How sad. I know everyone in this club is suffering. It is so sad for people to argue when we all are suffering like this. I think that the Levothyroxine has saved my life. I still am taking ..75mcg. I don't like fighting it only makes me feel worse. Can't you come to an agreement? We have enough confusion from the doctors we go to. If you saw a picture of me before treatment with the Levothyroxine and after it, you wouldn't believe it was the same person. Don't fight anymore and lets all try to find a cure or best treatment for this thing. I know you are very smart and cute and everything, We all need your brain. PS. This is how I sign.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Hi Dauphine, I have not participated in this thread before, but I sometimes think people interpret a difference of opinion as fighting. It is wonderful that this forum gives us the ability to see everyone's point of view, not just one. Also, it has been scientifically proven that laughter improves mood, health, and lessens pain, so as I see it, we would all do better laughing than crying. I hope you will be doing better.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Yes I am sure most of us feel better when we laugh or smile. I suppose it must make people grumply though when they are down and/or in pain. It would appear I am hypothyroid. (Yet to be be confirmed) I am awaiting results of blood tests taken only today. I live in the UK. I have read awefull things and I am really scared of this weird disease and I wish it would go away. Thankfully so far I am well but because I am maybe in denial. I feel in no mans land. I think I feel worse by reading too many horror stories. It is so good that people can be there for eachother.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Hi Suzanne, I have been hypothyroid for many years, and I can tel you this. There is help, there is medication. It does require you have a doctor who is both knowledgeable and willing to work with you. However, I have this to say for you. If you are diagnosed hypo thyroid, it is not a death sentence, and the are other things that are very much worse. So take heart, there are millions of us with you, and on this board you can have many friends that understand and share all your concerns with you.

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 I don't think it is very funny to laugh at illness. I would not laugh at people in a wheelchair. I wouldn't make a joke out of their illness. I would try to help them. Most of the people are fighting to get well. They would hang on every word that knowledgeable people like Chuck and Gracia have if it will make them well. They are the role models of the group. They give people hope. We need answers and not jokes. Please tell a joke that is funny. That is good for people to laugh at. Illness is not a joke. When people disagree and perpetuate their disagreement in every post It just tells other people that it is OK to be sick, that it is funny and lessens their motivation to get well. If someone has any differences of opinion they should state their differences and then take them private and not subject others to their antics. We need givens and not hypotheses. Sorry Chuck I just got insulted. D999 venizia1948 <nelsonck@...> wrote: D999, I really disagree with your objection to Chuck and Gracia kidding around. Even sick people need to laugh once in awhile.

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 I DO NOT think that Chuck and Gracia were laughing at the illnesses of other people. Nor do I condone laughing at illnesses of others. Remember, I also have this illness. I am not offended by their " joking " around. These two people care very much about the people in this group, there is no doubt about it. The " joking " shows they are human :-) and it is refreshing. If you read their comments they were " joking " on each other. It had nothing to do with the rest of us. Sorry you were offended and hope you look at both sides of this. Hope you have a peaceful and harmonious weekend.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 There are a lucky few of us [such as myself] who have no symptoms, although I must take Synthroid to keep my TSH within limits. But I think that is very rare. However, there was another person a few months back inquiring if anyone else had no symptoms. ly, I often feel like an impostor here, given the level of misery that so many have.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 OY IMO hypo/hyperthyroidism is the most poorly treated medical condition there is. I do not see a lot of satisfied customers in real life either. The revolution is coming and so are the lawsuits.
