Question, haven't been here in a while (
| Thu, 02-24-2005 - 11:41am |
Hi! I have a question. Yesterday, all day long, I was just crabby. Now, I have my period, but this was WAY beyond my "normal" monthly crabbiness. I was taking my kids to church at about 5:10 when I realized that I hadn't taken my Synthroid this morning. Could this have been the problem? I mean, EVERYTHING just set me off and I was ready to wring the neck of my hubby (who basically did nothing wrong) and I was just TOTALLY frazzled for some unknown reason.
Thanks for your input!

Hi:
I have found that since my diagnosis, I have been way crabbier when PMS strikes than ever before. In terms of missing a dose, my doctor and endos I've seen pretty much swear up and down that you don't notice a difference in a day, so the standard answer will be that it's not likely that you had symptoms from missing your dose... but who knows how these things really work... I think there's a lot more to it than most docs know.
There are associations between female hormones and thyroid hormones, and sometimes there's this big interaction... (wigging out!)
As a matter of fact, I noticed today that I'm feeling better (less tired, clearer-thinking, no headache, skin not so dry), but also realized that I'm sort of manic/ really on edge---and even a little panicy--- this sometimes happens as I adjust to a new dose...
Bottom line, you're not alone,
Good luck,
Dee.
ps. Sometimes I think the hubbies need their own Support board!! :-)
