Thanks bbskupak,
I'm glad you and your grandma have been treated so successfully. That has not been the case with my in-laws, all but one of them still have some very serious weight and health issues because their treatments have not gone so smoothly.
And...actually, for me. It is a big deal. We have to change my meds again...and I have a lot of diet and health issues to work around as well. Just taking synthroid each day is not going to work for me. I really, really wish it was that easy.
