Goodbye Clomid, Hello Synthroid

For now at least...

The appointment with the Endocrinologist went much better than I had anticipated. He went over my bloodwork, did a sonogram of my thyroid which I have now named Spongebob. I will explain in a minute.

Dr. Perky as I love to call him...Perkelvald is his real name, but I just love the sound of Dr. Perky. Anyway the Perkman was undeniably wonderful today. I just love that Dr and feel so blessed to be able to work with him...he's done wonders for my Mother's diabetes.

Anyway, so Perky isn't too happy with my Antibodies..he said too many of them are working overtime and it is time to lay them off and have them unemployed (lmao) I swear his analogies always make me chuckle, today he used Billionaire and Gov. Spitzer when referring to my Thyroid...Love the man.

So Perky says although my TSH is in normal range it is too high for his liking. 3.39, is not good in TTC world, so the goal is to get to 1-2.

Perkster gave me some Synthroid. I will gobble that up tomorrow morning, and every morning thereafter.

Perky says I am retaining water due to my antibodies and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis..can you believe I am BOTH Graves Disease and Hashi, except my Graves antibodies aren't as strong as they used to be and Hashi has kicked it's ass..hence my beautiful weight gain..
Fuck you Hashi!

Actually I prefer Hashi over Graves, but since I have both, it's a freakin party up in my thyroid.

Oh yes, Spongebob...apparently my Thyroid is spongelike because the antibodies are attacking it..

I pray Synthroid helps me...

I asked the dr, if they have Antibodies that attack Fat, cause I would so love some of those..
he said "KellyAnne, I think you may be on to something"

I should have been a Doctor, why didn't I stick to THAT plan..ugh.
