Hi:

I'm wondering if anyone has experienced a temporary worsening of hypo symptoms when you're coming down with a cold?

Yesterday I noticed an increase of hypo symptoms, which upset me because I'd had two days of gradually feeling better and had started thinking my new dose was finally taking effect. But I woke up with really itchy skin, sore, twichy muscles, headache, sore throat, very bloated, constipated, and I was cold, tired, and emotional all day.

This morning I woke up with a cold! While having a cold isn't great, I felt so happy because I thought maybe the symptoms from yesterday were just a precursor to the cold & not a regression...

Well, I'm going back to bed with a hot drink.
Thanks,

Dee.

Hi Dee - it sounds like you were feeling the cold coming on!!! I hope you get some rest and are feeling better soon. It's always something, isn't it??? LOL! I don't know if I feel more hypo symptoms when i'm getting sick; I don't think so .... Hugs, Cathy :)
