So..... I went yesterday, and had my follow up thyroid bloodwork. I have been feeling SO HORRIBLE... and just about have every single one of the above symptoms. My numbers were extremely elevated. Way way over the normal range. Which means, I have Hypothyroidism. Which I am not surprised. Its funny because I am always cold.... can't get warm. Anyways.... I was impressed that the doctor called me at 8 on a Saturday morning. I have to go get the medication today.

I've not been eating much, as a matter of fact, the new medication from my psych nurse causes considerable weight loss. So my poor self is fighting against my poor self.

I have been worried sick, about the big black mold spot on the ceiling in my foyer (under neath our "other" bathroom) and coming through near Daniel's door. Just when we fixed the other mess. That is why I posted the go fund me.... because I need to open up that ceiling, and it will probably be a mess. We wouldn't completely (hopefully) have to gut that bathroom.... but we might.

The guys are probably finishing up the hall bath this week.

I have to go up in the attic today, and inspect for evidence of mold and/or bats. The guys who painted???? yeah. They never closed off the open spots where the bats were getting in. They are not here yet, but breeding season is around june.

I'm just worn down.... all I want really is for Daniel's environment to be healthy. John and I are working our bums off to take care of Thomas's musical development, Sarah's college goals and dreams, and Daniel's massive needs in every element. And hang onto the shreds of a happy life filled with laughter.

If I had better health, I could probably work even harder, but as it is, I am worried sick, never sleep, have anxiety, and it HURTS to move around.

So maybe the bad blood result is good, and I will feel alittle better, so I can push myself harder and go back to work this week. I am borderline considering applying for disability. And John keeps telling me all I have to do, is just move more. Bless his heart.
