Who are you? & then some
Well, I’ve decided that since my blog has had over a couple thousand hits in the past month and a half, I ask out of pure curiosity, who are you? Feel free to either comment on this post or email me (hungryfortsh@gmail.com)– ask me questions, tell me about yourself, rant about your thyroid condition! Tell me what you like about the blog, what could be improved on, and what you’d like to see in the future!

Today, for the first time in weeks, I was able to reduce the Ibuprofen by 2 pills! My liver is beyond delighted! I can’t really notice a difference in the swelling from subtracting 2 pills from my daily regiment, so I am hoping to get it further and further down. Although the swelling is going down, there is some new thing hanging out right below my scar on the left side of my neck… I named it Thyknife, and it, as its name offers, feels like one of those slim pumpkin cutting knives has been wedged into my neck and is occasionally wriggled and tugged at. I took a picture just for reference- but Thyknife doesn’t look ANYWHERE near as menacing as it actually feels.
Well, I’m off to pick a fight with that ‘lil mofo! More later.

Quite brief– more later.
Well, just a quick update– not much has changed– I will still be returning to Heidelberg on the 11th of December (arriving the 12th) and promptly moving into my new apartment. No new TSH levels, although I can only imagine that they are mighty high because I feel very slugish and sleepy.
I’ll post a scupdate soon!
