So I went to the doctor yesterday morning! Still trying to get my thyroid back on track. Lesson learned NEVER let your thyroid meds go out and not take them. Due to a lack of insurance and lack of no knowledge about clinics you can go to and pay a $50 fee I let it go. Well 4 months ago I got it back on track, well trying to! I'm now on my 3rd dose revision, hoping we will get it soon!
Well the gal that I've seen last time was gone so yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting a new doc who spent the whole time looking at his computer instead of talking to me. The one time he did look at me he gave me the dreaded look up and down and gave me the and you may want to think about loosing some weight. After I bite back a moment I said politely I have been I'm down 30.2 lbs since the last time I was in (later when I looked at my chart according to their scale I'm down 34lbs). All I got well ok then from the little man! He then told me he wants to do more blood work in 2 months to check my thyroid. Of course he then turns to me to say he of course wants to check my cholesterol and if I have diabetes. Yes I'm a fluffy girl and immediately his mind goes to I am lazy and not taking care of myself. I nicely informed him go ahead I have had it done on a regular basis and it's always come out fine but I don't mind :).
Oh yes it was a great visit, I can't wait for Rick to get a full time job so we can have insurance back and I can go back to my doctor. After that visit I felt like my biggest critic and him got together and said no matter how much she has been doing don't give her credit and beat her down a bit! UGH
Ok off that my poor me box ... LOL. I know I'm doing well and I will keep up my 3 miles 5 times a week and doing my Wii Zumba 5 times a week when I'm not sick :(.
