Unhappy Still waiting

I was told I would have my test results from my biopsy first thing this morning and well they still are not in. I am losing my mind. I do feel somewhat better but still sore. The incision is fairly large not as big as the one from last year but I officially have a road map on my boob now. An interstate running down the right side and now a cross road on the bottom..lol.. Subject change for now. I did lose a pound but after my grazing yesterday I bet its back. I always get like this during the final days of waiting for my test results. I had carbs here and there off an on. I realized last night that I was grazing. I was feeling hungry but it wasn't real hunger it was worry hunger..I woke today telling myself no matter what the results today even if I don't get them I am going to be more vigilant with my eating. Well Saturday was my last day officially on soft foods. I am off my Dr.s after surgery regiment. I can start slow with anything that seems like it may go over well but was told to hold off on things like apple peels and just have the insides ect. I had a strawberry yesterday and that went well. And well I did get my test results back from my thyroid blood work and low and behold for some reason it is below normal it dropped from .500 to .062 which is deff low so they are backing off my meds by 25mcg. I think that the one remaining thyroid lobe that has been pretty much dormant since my thyroid removal of the other side six years ago has been roused. I don't think it will stay working considering my past history but for now they want to back off my meds a bit and recheck in six weeks. And I guess that low can make you feel bad too but its new to me I have never had hyper before..Guess that is why I am having more palpitations. And well if you don't get chronic fatigue from hyper then its prob depression sheesh well I guess with every thing going on and my son in jail again my stress levels are just up there. And I cant go to water aerobics till the dr okays it. I am sorry this is long but I have not been on line at all for a few days and I wanted to get you guys caught up in case I am not on again for a few days cause these days you just never know with me. I hope it gets warmer out so I can go do a little walking with my daughter but its cold and windy and raining up a storm out there so there wont be any today..

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Yes, I had hyper years ago. Rapid pulse rate, chronic tiredness, and just the awful feeling of being ran down. Of course, that's when mine was really really out of wack, but those are some of the symptoms. Take it easy girl! I know it's hard playing this stupid waiting game but we're here for you.

Lisa~ I hope you get great results from the biopsy and everything is fine. I'm sorry for all the worry and waiting you have. I've been there done that. My hubby goes back tomorrow for the results of his 6 month bone marrow biopsy and CT scan. He went into remission in December and we're praying he's still in remission. As for the other troubles.. I hope the resolve soon. Sounds like you deserve some peace in your life.

HUGS

I do hope you hear soon honey. Waiting is the hardest thing. Any time they mess with your synthroid it will make you do such strange things. People dont realize the thyroid effects you from the top of your head to the bottom of your toes and eveywhere inbetween. Sending good thoughts your way.

Waiting is the hardest part. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and please let us know as soon as you get the results!
P.S. My scars were the result of a medically necessary breast reduction, but I can feel ya on the scars. I have major ones.
