Well, my TSH still sucks, and I'm now up to a 200 mcg dose. So far, I've been feeling pretty good - no issues with palpitations or anything like that. I'll get checked again in the beginning of September, right around the same time that I'll be having my follow-up ultrasound. This means there shouldn't be a whole lot to report until then.
Looking back at my last post, I realize that I didn't make clear that I think my frustration is actually a good thing at this point. When I was first diagnosed, I intentionally kept my cancer as segregated from the rest of my life as possible. I didn't want to be dealing with other people's reactions as well as trying to deal with my own, and I wanted to keep things as normal as I could. As I've become more comfortable with my own story, I don't mind talking about it anymore. And now, it often seems kind of weird that most people don't know about this huge thing that happened in my life. So I think being frustrated sometimes that things are a bit disjointed is actually just a sign of how far I've come.
