The depression obviously, also having major conflicts with my thyroid meds. Just can't seem to get it sorted out. I have a serious weight problem that I can't control, and I have a seizure disorder that's hard to get under control. Thinking about it now, it seems kind of silly
Thyroids CAN do a number on emotions and weight. We noticed a link in our Irish Setters seizure problem in a blooming bush/tree that grew on perimeter when it bloomed, high sodium (salt) is she ate ham scraps, and stress when we got antoher dog playmate. Playmate wasn't her idea and she liked being numero uno. Salt easy to remedy with no more table scraps. Saying this because new research has found food, scents and stress can precipiate seizures. Latest research is on www.medlineplus.gov as my information is a few years old. I know you are a people ... just there are similarities. I believe there is a new device that can be implanted to control seizures although I have forgotten the name...being used on depression too I think... Nothing is silly that is causing you not to feel your best or share your concerns in hopes you can feel your best soon. My prayer is that your being proactive leads to what makes you feel your best. So many people have weight issues that Dr. Phil's Ultimate Weight Loss challenge is a number one seller and at most library. Much of the information available in search box above. However, thyroid can do a number on waist line and why our Irish Setter, Cyndee Pooh, was known as the biscuit bandit (to Tigger and D.C.) and she could not get enough water. Cyndee Pooh had BOTH thyroid and seizure problems. God rest her little doggie soul... Hugs and prayers, SEA Check out below and www.medlineplus.gov for latest information (for people) on thyroid and seizure treatments.

My Mom has had thyroid problems her whole life....It is NOT silly at all...Do you know that your Throid runs "YOUR ship?  If it is out of whack your whole system is?  This my dear is no small matter?  Actually a long time a go my Mom had a tumor on her para Thyroid...she had that removed...Now I just took her to get a cat scan and she has a goiter and it is growing getting longer and wider and she has to have that removed ...This is serious and has to go down to Penn in Phildelphia..Even has to possibly have a chest team on Stand by....They might have to crack her chest open if they cant get it threw her neck....In the waiting room they do have Internet there so its really good.  Me and my sister will stay with her the night before  they have a hotel connected to Hospital  My Mom and me and My sister are nerous about this....Me and My sister will stay with her until she is dis charged.. 

  

I understand your disorder and your stuggle....Stay on it!  IT IS NOT SILLY  YOU are not silly  THIS IS YOUR LIFE!
