Re: Just add Hashimoto's

I read all this again, and I go for my 2nd opinion tomorrow. I feel just like you, and I try each and every day. I come to work and sometimes the pain is doable but then like yesterday by the end of the day it my feet and hands hurt so much I couldn't stand it. I just wanted to go straight home and cry then go to bed.

It is all the things you said above......And I have thought this isn't any quality of life, and I am ready to be done now and Jesus just take me to heaven. I keep searching for an answer because I want to live life more then I did before Cancer because I realize how precious life is and I didn't appreciate my health.

I have taken my 2nd dose of 50,000 units of Vitamin D and maybe that will work. Heck, I don't know.

I get everything you said, and I hope you are feeling better!! What do they give you for this disease?? How do they figure out if you have it???
