Re: Uh-Oh..... Another foot story :-/



Reading this at 2:15 a.m., and trying not to laugh out loud as I picture you
and Danni. It is amazing what we can do with our bodies when the need is
there to act. The adrenaline doesn't care if you just had back surgery, or
that the chair would *charge* when meeting with any resistance, even just a
wooden tissue box. LOL

Sometimes I wonder if we subconsciously bring things about, maybe as a
balance in our lives. LOL Naw. Who wants to stub their toe; who wants
to chase dogs? Maybe it's just exercise for our coping skills so that when
we really need them, we'll be all ready. Or, more likely, it is just Life!

I saw in another thread, a comment about Synthroid. I've been taking it
since '75, and would never take the generic. Well, I'm not sure how many
years ago now, maybe ten, my labs were coming back appearing I was
non-compliant about taking it. I assured my doctor that I, indeed, took it
every day. Well, come to find out, they were in trouble with the FDA
because they were not following the guidelines. There was a class action
suit against them. I haven't checked on it in a long time to see if they
are compliant yet, or not.

A few months ago my doctor called, and asked how I felt. He said my thyroid
was so low I shouldn't even be able to walk across the floor. hehehe I
told him I thouight I was just being lazy, the way that all I *wanted* to do
was lie there on the sofa, hardly having the energy (I thought laziness) to
go to the bathroom, just a matter of steps away.

He sent an rx, and I got generic when I got it filleed, and haven't had any
serious problems since then. My endo changes my dosage at the slightest
abnormal, or whatever he doesn't llike about it, lab results. I think I
have just about every strength available so that he can micromanage my
thyroid.

I thought about all of this when I read your post, but didn't feel like
writing at that time, so thought I'd throw it in here while I'm feeling up
to it.

"so we piled them into the truck, well it's a SUV.. anyhow,"

I just cannot call it a truck! It's not a car, but it's not a *truck*
either to me! I'll just call it the Expedition if I have to say anything at
all.

Thanks for the story.... *vbg*
