I wouldn't have noticed either, but someone left me a comment about it. :)

There's no other real solution. Anything else that can be done involves destroying the thyroid and all that does is make me hypo instead of hyper and I'd still be taking pills all the time anyway.

Thing is they focus on the thyroid when there is nothing wrong with that gland - it functions correctly. The problem is in the endocrine system which is sending the wrong signals to the thyroid. But they have no fix for the endocrine system, or the immune system, which is the real cause of the problem. Actually, they barely understand how those systems work.

The pills do work quite well for me, even though I sometimes have to adjust my dosage, its not bad overall. It hardly interferes with my life at all. LOL except in very rare circumstances where my doctors want to radically change my meds.

No what keeps me from working are the other 10,000 things wrong with me - each individual condition is not serious enough to keep me from working, but all combined means that I'm constantly dealing with one thing or another going out of whack.

Plus one other condition/disease that my doctors can't diagnose, either because it is very rare, or because the symptoms of my other conditions are masking exactly what this new one is doing to me and we can't isolate the symptoms so we can't figure it out. Its frustrating as hell!

: Has Georgie gotten back to you about posting on SubetaLodge? I haven't seen her in a couple of days (hope she's okay!), but if she hasn't taken care of things for you, I can. Just let me know.

- I hope you have an absolutely amazing time! <3 I'm hoping to see it on tour when it comes down here.

- I'm sorry to hear that you're having to go through this. Perhaps this is an opportunity though to see if there are other symptoms that can help with a diagnosis of other things that are happening. Let us know if there's anything that we can do to help <3 hugs

nope she didn't, I hope she's ok! Yes please help me, thanks!

damn, it's a loop that it's impossible to go out of it, I hope they'll finally find what's going on instead of just giving you/changing meds.. did you try to check with other doctors?

At least you got used to it so you know what to expect..

Thanks! It would be nice if it could help with figuring out the other stuff :).

Mostly, I just posted to let everyone know that I probably won't be quite as on the ball as usual. I may make more mistakes too or miss even obvious stuff. So just keep an eye out in general.

yep. I've been to several specialists, six so far if I'm remembering right, the only progress has been to eliminate stuff. I've also mentioned stuff to other GPs. No one has been able to suggest anything - not even any avenues of search that I haven't already tried.

damn, I hope things will get better for you! And I can understand you at the point where the docs can't find what's going on exactly..

For 3 years already I have a pain on the right hip area, I did all the possible checks and everything came back ok, so at some point I just gave up and I'm living with this.. I'm in pain every second.. but I got used to it in some sense..

Thanks!

That's no fun. Doctors are great and can be very helpful, but when it comes down to it our collective knowledge about the human body is so lacking. On the other hand with research we are learning new things every day, so hopefully these undiagnosed issues will someday be resolved.

Yes you are right! and it seems that their is a lack of knowledge for many "simple" things... I hope we would invest more on research than what we do now..

Hey guys. I am still alive. Sorry for disappearing without a word. I had been having some physical problems for a few months. Turns out I had a pretty serious infection. Well, it would not have been so serious had I gone to the doc months ago. :x Anyway, long story short, I think I am on the upswing now and things will soon be back to normal.

Thanks to all of you for keeping up with things!

sorry to hear they are back to screwing around with your meds. Seems they do this every year. Hope you tolerate it well. :(

, thanks for taking care of Marlboro's issue.

Glad you found out what was going on and that it's curable :). Hope you heal quickly!

I've got a migraine from hell yesterday and today. Its not a symptom of being hyper, but it could be a reaction to being taken off my meds. LOL one good thing about the migraine is that its taking my mind off everything else :x.

Thanks for the welcome back guys. I spent most of the day sleeping and am about to go to bed again. I felt guilty for sleeping the day away and then figured I deserved it. :p

I'm so sorry for everything you're dealing with right now, I really hope things improve for the better soon ❤️

It was great, if you can get tickets, I definitely recommend going!

For a given value of alive? Yes. School and work are taking a toll. I've been trying to pop on a little to take care of the things I need to do and whatnot, but I'm definitely not as social as I want to be. How are you doing?

So, a user just pointed out to me that all of the "seasonal" quest shop items now have their own tab, leading all of our item notes for those items to be incorrect.

Items referenced are here. I don't mind taking care of it, but it will probably be several days before I can get to it. I kindly told the person that it would all be fixed up by next weekend, just in case we're all busy! :P

This is going to be something we'll have to update with each seasonal change of stock :(

I'll go ahead and try to get some of it fixed tonight ❤️ I didn't even think about that when they made the announcement -sobs-

On the upside, I think we can just note which season it's available in and not have to change the links etc every season change right?

- Thank you for your help! I'm just too fried to work on those at the moment and heading to bed in about 2 minutes 😴

Take the "Dark Matter Pumpkin" that's currently stocked because it's fall/autumn. The notes on SubetaLodge should say that it stocks in the Quest Shop, specifically Maleria's section. But now, since they added the seasonal section, it should say that instead of Maleria (along with which season, as you noted). When winter rolls around, there are going to be a whole new set of items that we already have in our database, but now have the incorrect notes because they've moved sections. Does that make more sense? Did I mention I'm tired
