She was hitting her 5 years when they'd consider her cancer free, and they found another tumor. But now she's gone 5 more years, nearly 6, and it hasn't returned. So remember we never know what tomorrow will hold (as you well know) but whatever you go through today and accomplish will make you stronger for tomorrow. <BR/><BR/>Take care of yourself, you are an inspiration.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6729901.post-1149015366040601682006-05-30T14:56:00.000-04:002006-05-30T14:56:00.000-04:00It sounds like not being patient is the way to go....It sounds like not being patient is the way to go.

I have a friend with a thyroid condition different from both of us. Even on synthroid she still had that deadening mid-afternoon fatigue. Synthroid replaces your T-4 hormone and your body is supposed to use it to make T-3 hormone also. Some people don't make that conversion well. She ended up taking a T-3 substitute in the afternoon in addition to the synthroid in the morning. It made all the difference for her. There is also replacement hormone taken from pigs (which was the standard before the synthetic hormone) that contains both T-4 and T-3. It's one angle you can look into in your quest to feel better. Also, the exercise, keep working at it. Even a 20 minute walk every morning makes a huge difference in how well (or not) I feel all day. Good luck.Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13678132511392363114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6729901.post-1148735092226720752006-05-27T09:04:00.000-04:002006-05-27T09:04:00.000-04:00Amie - I hope you know how much I love you.
