"I have Crohn's Disease along with Fibromyalgia." (katiek)

MDJunction to me

"I am so happy to be a part of the MDJunction family! Where I used to be alone, I now have friends whom inspire me, comfort me, support me, and do not judge me. My new life began October 17, 2008. I weighed in with severe depression, social anxiety disorder and avoidant personality disorder. I was born with complications but I am fighting for my life and I will survive!!" (apieceofwork)

Anyone else out there had their thyroid glands and/or tumors nuked? I had mine nuked about 4 years ago and I have been falling apart since? I had 8 benign tumors on my thyroid and the gland was super large so they "nuked" the whole mess. I had to have 2 additional nukings (called 1-131 Ablations) and now all that is left is 2 tiny noldules with no live tissue. I have had trouble getting my tsh levels settled. But it also led to diabetes and it gives my fibromyalgia fits. Right now I am coming off high dosages of Requip and the pain is horrible!! Missing lots and lots of work.

Hello to all the newbies, I've been gone awhile, and have missed being here!

((((HUGS))) Kathy

we all need "splashes" of JOY in the cesspools of life
3:16...........real joy
