I thought I was gonna die! The room was spinning, voices were like an echo, I was just about out, but could still hear things. DH called my surgeon, was told to go to ER, my thyroid levels plummeted, needed dbl dose, magnesuim, calcium, BP was very low 88 over 55,! I was a mess- I thought I was a gonner !

So weird after 2 1/2 hours it was like magic- I started feeling like myself! WOW, the thyroid meds are really tricky- as the Dr told me, it may take awhile to find the right dosage just for me! yikees, scared the crap out of all of us. DH thought I did too much yesterday- I washed 1 load of clothes, in fact they are still in dryer & DS brought the clothes right to the washer- all I did was- put them inside washer, pour in soap & put on water! Hardly not enough to put me in the ER! It was just my meds that had so crazy!
I feel better today- just weak, just took my thyroid meds. So I guess I will have another day of shuffling from sofa to puter to bathroom -- lol! (really not funny- I was really scared!)

Talk later, Bunny

Wow, Bunny that does sound scary. No more laundry for you. Please take it easy & get plenty of rest while you're recovering.
