Well, here's an update to my thyroid issues. You might have read my post last week where I initially voiced my concerns about this. I saw my doctor on Friday, and after an examination, she told me that my thyroid is larger on one side. Now I've got a whole sheet of bloodwork to get done (possibly Tuesday), and I'm scheduled for an ultrasound on Wednesday morning. The odds are in favor of the enlargement being non-cancerous, but the possibility still exists that it could be cancer. I'll know more on Wednesday.
I've been so tired, though! I just don't feel like doing anything, which is so unlike me! I'm usually able to coax myself out of bed by 6:30, even on the weekends, but as the past few months have ticked by, I hit the snooze button longer and longer. Now I have to force myself out of bed by 8:00 on the weekends. During the week, I'm waiting until the last possible minute to get up...if I stay in bed, I'll be late for work, so "gotta get up" -- but I don't want to.
Needless to say, I haven't been exercising. I don't even feel like cooking. I just want to sit down and rest! I try to study or read, but fall asleep.
Somebody on here suggested getting my adrenal system checked, too. I told my doctor about this, and she said that we'll focus on the thyroid first, and if we don't see results there, we'll look into the adrenal system. I'm hoping she'll refer me if that ends up being the case.
I hope I get some answers this week!
