SHARDS "Cut and bleeding on the broken fragments of my memory" A Journey into healing Page 2 - So it wasn't that ... now what?

Yikes .. now, what could it be? Sugar levels? Bi-polar? Lazy slobbitis? Mental mush?
"Snap Dragons" .. oh I grew those in my sleep!! Get to close to me -- I'd BOLT or worse -- I'd open my mouth and all that was foul that I was fighting would launch itself at the person that had the misfortune to have become my instant target / enemy / demon. Unfortunately this was most often the man I love most! The abject horror of what I was saying was driving him from my life .. maybe I could protect him that way? Get real girlfriend!!!

You have to eat .. NOW!

My mind would scream that it was in need. Sugar bits, mints. Nope, those don't help. So we tried keeping fruit, crackers etc in the car at handy reach. Nope .. I need food! Lord not fast food... balanced nutrition.
Hmmmm - a new clue?

Back to the doctor - check for hypo-glycemia.

Want to guess what the outcome was on this one? You got it. Nope, not that either. Lets run the thyroid level again and put you on more. So we were at 0.10mg per day of synthroid....

Okay, so we give her a little more synthyroid (synthetic Thyroid) and send her away. Good try. I dutifly went to doctors visits and "vampire" visits to have regular thyroid levels checked. At each visit I would complain of the weight I was adding while my diet had not changed, that I felt highly emotionally charge (can you read that lighting had less current?), that I felt like I was on a run-a-way rollercoaster, that I felt hypoglycemic etc..

"Keep an eye on it" was one doctors "medical" advise. Wanna guess gender on THAT one?

When I saw my normal female (hmmmm) practitioner again and mentioned this same issue to her and that I was very irritable and seeemed to be crying all the time .. she got very interested and ordered an additional blood scan -- specifically looking for the thyroid anti-body! Guess what!
