About Time!!

I had a checkup with the specialist yesterday and it's FINALLY some good news. After 6 years of battling this it looks like my thyroid may finally be starting to come around. And the best part is I've FINALLY starting to lose some of the weight I put on as a result of this. In the last 6 wks I've lost 5 kilos (about 11lbs) I've still got a long way to go but at least now it looks like I'm finally on the right path. The specialist still wants to monitor me to make sure that this isn't just a one-off thing. But he's cautiously optimistic that we may finally have this beat. Now if only the specialist in Canada had continued to monitor me then I probably would not have had what is considered this 2nd flareup because we would have known that the last 'cure' wasn't a cure but just a temporary calm down. Although that being said I know that everything happens for a reason, whether or not we know the reason for it happening. And obviously I was meant to have this happen the way that it did. Who knows maybe this happened the way it did because this was the way I was meant to meet the incredible people I have met because of this. But enough of the philosophy. The good news is that it looks like my thyroid is straightening around and I'm losing weight.
