Just bullet points. I’m still really sick/whatever. But:
- tests came back totally normal, so we have to do different kinds of tests. Thyroid function is a-ok. You could have knocked me over with a feather, and then I cried. Why can it not be straightforward for once? I also have to have the growths monitored.
- Have signed papers for a brand! new! Elantra! But we still have to get through the whole trade-in process, so it’s not completely a done deal yet.
- Noah’s party redux is tomorrow. Original guest list: 27 attending. Tomorrow: 9. Oh well, there will be cake. I am so tired that I am not doing half of what I’d done last week.
- Noah’s word for museum: See-um. As in “can we go see-um?”
practical advice:
this sounds a lot like what happened to a friend of mine when her immune system freaked out and she became allergic to everything under the sun. constantly tired, ill feeling, joint pain, etc etc etc.
so while you are doing all the annoying tests, if they are vague about what might be going on, check for celiac/gluten problems? because as I understand it, if that _is_ what’s going on & you catch it early you can change diet and avoid more serious problems later.
sorry for the unsolicited medical advice — i’m sure you’ve got it well under control — but you know us worrying types.
I hope you are able to find answers to the illness, it is so frightening to be ill with no answers. The relief of knowing it isn’t the “bad one” is short lived when the symptoms persist. I’ve only ever found focusing on the task at hand helpful. I hope you are feeling well soon.
