Health Update

It was too good to be true I guess. I was hyperthyroid and was in line to have radiation done to kill my thyroid. Then a miracle happened and it regulated to self back out and we were so excited! And of course that would not last long enough and not I have gone the other direction and am now hypothyroid. This is still a much better alternative to hyper so I guess I will take what I can get. Of course with hyper I was supposed to basically be dropping weight by the hour but never lost a pound, so why when I get hypo would I suppose the same kindness of not receiving symptoms stay the same. Oh no! I have gained like 10 pounds overnight and feel miserable. I have to take medicine every day for the rest of my life and have blood tests every 6 weeks. This is all still way better than radiation though, so I will take it with a smile on my face. It stinks that I was just finally getting out of the woods of all the doctor visits and got my clean bill of health again and not 2 months later they revoked it and I am starting all over with this thing! I am really sad and depressed and upset about all of this. I feel like the rug got pulled out from under my feet all of a sudden. I just want to be healthy and normal and get back to life the way it was before I knew everyone at the clinic by name and had constant holes in my arms. Well, lucky for me I have the most amazing and supportive husband in all the world and he has held my hand on most days and held me up on all the others. And lucky for me, we will be celebrating our 2 year anniversary next week. We are thrilled to be getting out of Rexburg and cannot wait to be alone for a few days with no job or school or anything distracting us from each other. I love him so much. We are getting our annual family pictures taken on saturday and we finally picked out the outfits for the shoot. I can't wait to add them to the blog on our photo timeline thingy. We have really liked getting our pictures taken at the same time every year. Granted we have only done it three time now, but we can already see how much we have grown and changed and we think it will be really fun to watch the years go by and see our family get bigger and happier along the way.
