I've been going through a series of medical tests, some routine, some not, and at this point have 3 things I have to deal with

Oh, man, lots of love--hope everything works out well for you in all areas. Yeah, sense of humor...maybe when it´s all over and done.

On the plus side, my cholesterol is basically okay, a little high which is probably due to the thyroid, but very close to normal.

I have hypothyroidism. Grandma says that she had it to when she was my age, but it went away. You'd almost think there was a genetic component. Symptoms went away really quickly after I went on meds for it. It's a pretty easy thing to take care of. Best of luck with everything else, I'm sure it'll work out fine.

There is a genetic component. That was one of the things that prompted me to get the test. Also, my hairdresser actually suggested I might have a thyroid problem because I was losing more hair than usual. So a lot of things indicated there might be a problem.
