Not Good...

[nitroshep]

I got the bad news today that I'm not doing so well.. My Thyroid gland has once again gone way overactive to the point where i'm at a high risk of having a Stroke, or worse.. My T4 is double over what is considered maximum high normal.. For those that don't know, the Thyroid gland (in your neck) controls many parts of your body including the heart.

O.o I'm glad that you got it checked out before the problem turns into something worse. I've known people who have gone through overactive thyroid conditions..one person I knew had his overreaction turn into an instant weight loss program x.x Eventually he got better but still, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Good luck with getting better, I hope that it all works out for you in the end *hugs*

Thank you, it would be a good idea to check if it runs in the family. I couldn't find any history in mine so no idea where it came from, mine appeared with pain in my feet and feeling hot all time a few years back.

*hugs* appreciate that, i'm glad I got checked after returning from the con when I still felt anxiety that worried me.
