It's time to say goodbye...

to the meds. I have been taking medicine for the past 9 months and I couldn't be happier. Yay!!!!  I have been taking pills twice a day to treat my hyper thyroid. The results of my blood work back in December put me in the normal range. The results last week put me slightly below that down into the hypo thyroid range so the doc. took me off the meds in the hope that I will gradually work my way back up to the normal range and then hang out there for a few months (hopefully years).  So no more having to look at that pill box I had to get because I couldn't remember to take my pills twice a day if I didn't.  I was more upset about having to take the stupid pills than I was about the Grave's Disease diagnosis in the first place. I have never been one to take medicine for anything, not even to deliver my big babies and I don't know why but the thought of having to be on medication for the rest of my life just really freaked me out. So for now I am on vacation from my pills.

"Shari, you just got taken off your meds!  How are you going to celebrate?"

"I'M GOING TO DISNEYLAND!!!!"
