I figured you would have antibodies not unusual under the circumstances
they can leave for a while and come back, what is the number and range?
Can you believe they still have not tested me for antibodies, but have
sent off for my records for 2001 and 2002 for the whole mess before tx
and during..
They are doing adrenal tests, B12 and some other stuff. I do thyroid
labs in 2 more weeks but have a long way to go till I feel normal what
ever that is?. Yep, all you can do is watch it for now and keep in mind
Armour thyroid due to the reaction you were having on the other stuff.
Armour is much more gentle. Good luck on the new job and glad your close
to home so you can keep up on your health. I have been reading as usual
and has Kiak had any adrenal tests done?, There is much to do with heart
and adrenals. As inf can tax them out. Hope she is getting better.  I
would also wait for a new tx as long as you can especially with a
screwed thyroid.                                Juanita

Well I saw my doc today about my thyroid test's. I do have antibodies
which may or may not resolve it's self. MRI scan shows no problems with
my hypothalamus and pituitary glands.
We both agreed to let things go for a while, not take thyroxin and stay
on the AD's for the time and "see how I feel". Right now I feel fine.
The sinus surgery took care of my headaches, I'm much calmer now not
taking levothyroxin. So for now I'll just keep a watch out for HYPO
symptoms and in 2-3 months go in for a thyroid panel and go from there.
Overall I am much calmer and am sleeping better. I may have to go back
on levothyroxin, maybe not. Time will tell.
My sinus surgery is healing up fine not having the "middle of the eyes
headaches" is cause for me to feel good.
So for now life goes on, I have a new job, I'll start Wednesday and just
go on with life. I had a nice chat with Elmo last night, sounds like
your having a good time down there Elmo. Party on.
Someday I'll redo the treatment for the Hep C of some kind, what every
they come up with in the future. I'll give it a couple of years, do
another BX and go from there. I see no reason to rush into it as my last
BX was a stage 1, mild inflammation.
So there you go!

Sounds like a great plan Russ.  Maybe that ol' thyroid has some life
in it yet.  Good luck with the new job.

Yep, I had a good time working the front door at a local blues club
Saturday night.  First time I've used the 'get naked for me' line and
gotten a date out of it.  Life is good and getting better!
