FAIR WARNING

The filler in the generic synthroid I'm taking has a few annoying side effects so I may blow up once or twice till I can use 'em up (90-day supply), and go on something else. SO BITE ME. :~)


I have been trying to correlate Mary Shomon's thyroid book with the May 1 labs I got. Based on that, I just ordered the two antibody tests that were missed, plus ferritin, via HealthCheckUSA-- yup, patients CAN order their own blood tests and get the results themselves. Blood, saliva, all of that stuff, cheaper than the local hospital lab.

I can get the blood drawn later in June, probably when we fly to Calif. to scatter Mom's ashes-- we have overnight layovers near Chicago where LabCorp has testing facilities right near our hostess. Or I can drive 3 hours each way to the nearest, here, or I can pay the hosp. lab to send them out (big bucks). In any event I will have the results by the end of June.

The rest of the old labs I get tomorrow-- I can hardly wait.
