that it's not all going downhill? Yes, 'draggy' is what both thyroid problems and low calcium/vit-d and magnesium felt with me. It's the feeling that you have to 'drive' or 'force' youself to just do basic normal things.
Yorkiemom/Cathie? Yes, that 'which part of worse' is a durn good way to describe it all. You had to go off the 'synthroid'? WOW! That's serious testing!
As for losing hair? Well, is it because of the original 'condition/symptom/problem', or the meds for each, or other additional 'conditions/symptoms/problems' and/or the meds for those? Or, all of the above? Just be the very bestest friend to your skin and scalp as you can be? You have had your body 'insulted/assaulted'-whatever- in many ways not normal, so you use the best lotions/potions/salves and/or supplements you can find to keep that part of your 'systems' supported. I have to tell you, I've a larger 'army' of the lotions, etc. than I do meds and painkillers!
