So i feeling crappy/symptomatic.... wheich has me worrying about going intoo distress..... But im looking at the wrong cause.
Ive been worrying that my calcium dosing is off and that im headed toward tetany... but ive come to realize after reasearching; that im likely Hypothyroid....
And its my own stupidity that would be causing it.....
I HAVE to take my synthyroid at bed time...no ifs-ands-or-buts.... I tried doing it in the morning, id miss the dose half the time... So, I dont miss it at all when i take it when i turn the light out. I take my calcium magnesium and Vit D in the morning, and a second dose of calcium 12 hours later... the problem... its only an hour between my calcium and synthyroid... Calcium will cancel out the Synthyroid if taken within 3 hours of eachother....So, I need start taking my evening dose earlier...like after supper and then my synthyroid at bed...maybe that will sort me out, cuz im really tired of feeling so tired and weak. I think my Endo is gonna kick my ass when she finds out. I have to do bloodwork next week and its gonna tattle on me... I should have known better....
Ah well.... Glad i sorted it out...things were not adding up.... i feel prickly, tired, irritable, weak.....the only think ive been paying attention to has been the Prickly feeling.... First warning of low calcium is tingling in the fingers and toes... there are two "tests"..tapping near your ear, and a digital reaction when having a blood pressure cuff inflated on your arm.... well, i have no facial twitches and my hand didnt react to having my blood pressure done....( and because my BP and HR are textbook normal...i now know my hormones are low...i should be a little High)
Enough of that, i know what i have to do to feel better, and so ill work on that....Calcium at dinner.....
You have no idea how badly i wish i was normal...... i truly hate being dependant on medication and supplementation to live.... Im really pissed my surgeon messed up my parathyroids..(the reason why i need to take 3 grams of Ca++, 175mg Mg, 1000UI Vit D a day)
In other more intresting news.... Things have been going great WRT Jay being away... Last night we did a bunch of Mushy mush texting, and had a nice phone call, and that is my favorite part about him being away! Its like Dating!! We have a great marriage, and we have always behaved like newlyweds; dispite approaching our 5th wedding anniversary lol...but these absenses are a real boost for us lol.
Kids are driving me a little crazy and travens Cadet schedual is busy...throwing dance in there is gonna be interesting...and ive been recruited to be on the Support Committee for cadets... yay... Oye..LMAO...im gonna be a busy lady!!!
Well...that is all i have to write at the moment...
Ciao
