Dealing with chronic illness is a drag but eventually it will become habit and you won't feel so put upon.

Thyroid problems are a drag but seem to be more common than I had initially thought (I know several folks that have had the things burned out (via radiation) and just take their daily meds like vitamins and do fine). Also, once they got the tyroid issue straightened out a lot of other wackiness in their health subsided.

So this is good for you to be getting this treated.
