    they are not okay. You should see about seeing an endocrinologist since you need some help with your blood glucose and your thyroid and you'd have a doc trained to deal with both.

    FYI: My endocrinologist called a prescription for a med to increase my T3. I should be starting that tonight or tomorrow morning.

        However, this morning, my fasting blood sugar was 98, yesterday was 113, and Sunday morning was 116.

        Blood sugars have normalized and my Tuesday morning weigh in was down 3 pounds to 285, one more pound and I will have lost a total of 70 pounds since February 2009! (I'll have to adjust the ticker later this morning.)

        congrats on shrinking both you and your blood glucose numbers.

          forbey im glad your geting your thyriod fixed people with thyriod problems have a WAY harder time loseing weight infact people thought it was impossible for them to lose weight till atkins gave them a chance

          but if you can get your thyriod fixed the weight loss should be much easier but also i hear it's hard to get it just right i hear people need to tweak there thyriod meds a few times to get it just right
