Arrghhh

I just realised it has been a few weeks since I last blogged. It has been a few hard weeks for me. The exhaustion and crying all the time is back. It feels like I'm always empty and don't have any energy. Which can only mean one thing and it's that the thyroid meds are not working as good as before. Even my close friends can see that I have deteriorated lately. Eventually I have taken the decision to go back to the doctors to sort it out.
I know it sounds silly but it is difficult for people to understand as it does not look like anything is wrong with me from the outside but people who suffer from the condition do know how much of a struggle it can be (particularly when it has been diagnosed recently). For the other people, the only way I can describe it is as being in a state of deep depression, which is one of the symptom and if often confused for it. It also affects weight loss and even if I managed to loose 7 pounds in the first two weeks the weight is back even if I'm still eating healthy.
