I'm sorry you've been off for so long.  I'd be completely bonkers by then.

Right now--I'm just irritable and ticked off that my thyroid probably isn't fully dead.

Some little piece of it still thrives--causing the commotion that I just have to live with until it goes caput.

I think I read AR said somewhere his was dying faster--something to be thankful for.

He has a better outlook than me.  I've been in a perpetual ill mood and no matter how hard I try--I still feel crabby.

So--I can relate some.

I hope you get relief soon:)

I'm in a similar boat.  I went off my synthroid for a week, and now I am doing the half pill some days and whole on others--my body is completely out of whack.

I'm still hyper and have to wait 25 days for an appt...I just moved to a new area.

My weight is hanging in at 100--though I normally weight about 105.

I don't really have much advise, but I just know how it is to have your body out of whack because of being taken off and dosage changes.

Hope you feel better soon.
