Good Morning All!

I hope you all had a restful, pain-free night! I did.

I have to work today but it's not but 4 hrs. I think I can handle that. Starting cytomel (thyroid T3) today for fatigue mostly. Interesting to see how that goes.

I hope everyone has a good, balanced and pain-free day!

Hugs

Good afternoon!!! How is everybody doing?

I just got through running some errand and now going to relax and watch a movie. I hope everyone is having a good day!

Funny pic, Susan. That's great that you only have to work 4 hours. And, really great that you are trying that thryroid medicine. I remember you posting that article about T3 and T4 levels and Fibro. I printed it out and need to read it today so I can ask my dr. about it tomorrow. Please let us know how it works for you. I'd be really interested to see if it helps with fatigue etc. Smile

Ok, got to run! Talk to you all later.

I'll let you know in a few days how the cytomel is working. Just started today. I should know something by then. I did some movie watching today too. Not my usual thing but Safe House is a great action movie. Was really tired but couldn't fall asleep, it was too exciting. I wish I were up to working more than 4 hours a day though. I am ready to get back to that place! Pain is a little better today and the temp is finally going down but humidity is awful here right now. We need some rain! it keeps threatening (and I can feel it) but it doesn't actually rain.

BF9- I hope you're not having to recover too much from your night out.

Sam- I hope your itching is improving!

I hope everyone has had a good, pain-free, balanced Monday.

Hugs

Thanks Susan. I would appreciate that. Take your time though-no rush.

I'm in the middle of watching Million Dollar Baby. It's a real good movie. Don't know if any of you have seen it. But, it's good! I haven't seen SafeHouse yet but it looks good as well.

I'm pretty much recovered from my night out on Saturday. I had to get up pretty early today though so I am feeling it...mostly pain in my legs-they feel really weak. I feel sort of a dull pain daily and then the nerve and joint stuff on top of it.

So, I'm going to finish watching this. Catch up with you all later.

And, Susan, good for you-Four hours is a lot, especially if it's five days a week. You should be proud. I know it must still be difficult though. I hope I can get to the point where I can do anything-school or work for 4 hours a day. All I do is sit around now or sleep. Sad Oh well, it's a daily challenge. If you have any strategies as to how to do it. Let us know. Smile

Good evening all! I just brought my iPad so I am typing with one finger.Silly

I am tucked in my hotel room. Exhausted! Tomorrow should be easier.

Daughter has to wait for Comcast repair guy so hopefully we will be playing with baby.

Just wanted to say hello and let you know that I made it down safely!

Hugs!
