Rachael - Did they ever tell you what caused your thyroid issues? So far no one knows with mine - it just sucks! But I am sure you know all about that! Hope you & your baby are doing well!!
I noticed for years that something was amiss - weight gain, hair loss, t.i.r.e.d., foggy-headed but 'passed' all the tests. Later, right after the baby was born - I went to the doctor with a lump in my throat, he sent me for an ultrasound & they found the tumor. A fine needle biopsy showed cancer. Surgery confirmed it had spread to lymph nodes, etc. Took I131 radiation therapy and still waiting to pass my follow-ups.
So, although I noticed thyroid problems before the cancer was found - they really were dismissive to me b/c I was thin and "too young". You're supposed to be fat, frazzled & forty. I was skinny, tired & twenty five. LOL
Anyone having trouble with Papa?

As far as papa goes.. he visited us tonight times 3
I took back the extra moby wrap I had gotten and an extra brita pitcher (another one of those "how many do I need" things). I got 2 more merona bags, 1 pk of c9 women's t-shirts - they were repackaged and priced at 5.61, so .61 after TQ! I figured I'll need something to wear around the house after baby is born. I did a dumb thing and got rid of a lot of clothes early on in my pregnancy... need to start replacing some!
Got dh a pair of workout shorts & shirt - c9 q beeped on shirt but not on shorts - it had previously gone through on the shirt. *shrug* K1'd, so no problem there.
2 cans of chef - .99, q auto'd so 2 free cans to entertain the toddler with for lunch tomorrow.
Found some circo shorts for .75!
Also found on clearance a baby car seat for $14.98 - reg price $69.99! We don't need a baby car seat, but I picked it up and figured maybe I could craigslist it. Is that awful?? DCPI: 030090154 [amazon.com]
I also got the pack & play I've been wanting for $34.98. I was afraid to wait and see if it'd go lower. DCPI: 030090155 [amazon.com]

dec12girl-- I hope you get it worked out and get to feeling better.

I am the world's worst of buying baby things I don't need for resale. Tonight I got some bath mittens that were 75% off.

And thanks for the info on the pack & play - I was hoping for easy set up/take down.
There were some cheap bedding sets for around $16 tonight, but I don't know how that resells. There were a few things I would've liked to get. I saw a folding table/chairs kids set for $25 - I soooooooooooo want that for DD! It wasn't obvious that it was on clearance, so I'm hoping it sits there until I either have cash/gc/or some major amazing overage deal to get it.
Mavis has been soooo so so active today. It's kind of amusing. And slightly painful... lol.
Man - been waiting on DH to get home from work/gym. He's kind of later than normal.
Has anyone had success in reselling the kids clothes? There are some cheap shorts and stuff right now (.75-1.00) I'd be tempted to just buy the whole rack out if I could resell it at a profit.
I am on a bunch of meds to keep everything under control & my thyroid keeps pouring out thyroid hormone --- all very sucky and I feel as if I am 12 feet underwater. I have a radiated iodine uptake test scheduled and I am on a low iodine diet for the moment - not coming online much as I feel as if I have been run over by a cement roller just after running a marathon ... this is crazy I have NO NO NO energy at all. Anyway - so I have no idea what is going on or what coupons to look for -
Teri - How is Joel? How are you? I am thinking of you guys and sending P & PT that things are improving!!!!
Ank - Sent PM - thinking of you - I am hoping you & bubee are doing well!!! HUGS
M2T - I am sorry that things are so tough right now - I am sending HUGS & THOUGHTS!!!!!!!! Sent you a quick PM
L2B - Sorry to hear about the cost of the dentist - I HEAR you on that!!!! It is crazy how much dental work costs ... I still haven't seen to my crown ... oh and in the back of my mind I am blaming my root canal for all my thyroid problems LOL Do we really NEED teeth anyway
M2C - Sent you some Pampers codes
Ella - Sent PM - Sending HUGS HUGS HUGS - sorry that you have so much on your platter! I hope you do not ever run into those thugs again - P & PT your way!
Qqueen - I don't know if you are around --- but how did your biopsy go? I don't think you ever came back and told us ... well except for the no swimming on your trip thing. Is everything ok? Thinking of you!
TN - THANK YOU VERY MUCH for the envie!! I got it today!!! THANKS! YOU ROCK!
Cherry - Hope Alissa is safely snuggled in your arms now! HUGS HUGS HUGS
Rachel - Did they ever tell you what caused your thyroid issues? So far no one knows with mine - it just sucks! But I am sure you know all about that! Hope you & your baby are doing well!!
Meesh - How are things going with you & your house looking in FL? Have you found anywhere you like? How are all the kids? I thought of you when I saw a sale at TRU last week on Crayola but I never got a chance to go - just not up to it. Sending HUGS & hope that your moving plans are going well!
Ok - hugs to all of you who I missed! Hope all of you get a chance to shop & find some good deals!

PS - had trouble with Papa - saying that I had used up my allotment ...
Awww Dia!! I hope they figure out what is going on QUICKLY for you... hoping that you feel better soon... Things are going GREAT!! We are trying to have some fun b4 going back to school...we are looking around FL for our perfect house but it seems like the house values keep getting lower sooooooooooo... we are tempting faint and waiting just alittle longer
Yeah, the older they get the more expensive they get , and we thought diapers where bad
Good luck on your house hunt, don't wait too long as inflation is starting to hit ,
finacial experts are saying it's going to be bad. Unless of course your looking on the Gulf, nea the water that oil spill is probalby going to devalue alot of those homes. I feel bad for those homeowners.
Good night
Someone I know online mentioned a less well-known one for hypothyrodism, that the outer edges of the eyebrows disappear. I had been using a brow pencil for so l hadn't noticed that the outer edges were just a few straggly hairs. Hmm.
Anyone else looking at the 7/31 exp coupons and just feeling exhausted?
Hmmm - so far no clue as to the cause of my problems ... I have had my thyroid checked before and it has been fine - - - I *think* from the way I am feeling that this is what happened after I had my last daughter because my BP went thru the roof something like 200/130 and they put me on meds right away. I also got really sick (nothing to do with thyroid) but they didn't test my thyroid so I will never know. I guess I fit the mold - tired, worn out, fat, frazzled and not yet forty ... although they seemed really surprised because they said without a family history or some sort of infection most people do not suddenly develop thyroid problems before they are in their 70's or so. On an ironic note I would like to say that I think it is absolutely unfair that I have a really HYPERACTIVE thyroid and I am not losing weight. That is just cause someone somewhere has a sense of humor ... LOL I will PM you - I have a few more questions I would like to ask as I wait for further testing and feel like s walking pile of garbage ...
PS - had trouble with Papa - saying that I had used up my allotment ...
I would think you could find a taker on Craigslist for the car seat - and that pack and play is cute!!!!!!! Sounds as if you found some good deals!!!
One of the things they told me was that the leading cause of thyroid problems was family history - so I would make sure they do periodic blood work to make sure your thyroid is ok - with your Dad having that I would guess that increases your risk
I think that you are making a good decision! I think that the price of houses is going to keep going down for a bit ... I think we have another economic drop coming .... but that is a gloomy proposition. But hey, if you have the time to wait I would wait! LOL I saw that they had shifted from a B1G2 to a B1G1 ... I should have made my head stop spinning long enough to drive to TRU last week! LOL Good luck with your shopping this week!

Right now I don't care so much about that crazy couple anymore. Too occupied freaking out about the surgery (not until the end of August). I met with my Dr today. I thought it would be just a small cut to take out the two lymph nodes, but I found out that it is a neck dissection to remove all of the lymph nodes, the scar will run from under my ear all across the neck to the base of my neck. I know I sound stupid and vain, but I don't want a big scar all across my neck. I was told that it is not uncommon to loose feeling from the ear to the shoulders. I'm really scared and don't want to have the surgery. But then the cancer will continue to grow and I want to be around for my daughter.
I found out recently that my mom's friend's daughter passed away two months ago from breast cancer. She was in her early 40s. My mom kept it a secret and even had her friend lie to us (my husband and I) that she is doing better. I couldn't believe the length my mom would go to to "protect" me and keep me from worrying, to the point of asking her still-grieving friend to lie. I felt very bad. I have been telling myself all day that I should be grateful to be living in this country and having excellent medical care (my mom's friend's daughter did not) and less worried about my appearance. I feel bad for being vain and whinny right now. I know that I should have the snap out of this and have the surgery. I really don't want to.
Teri, I finally caught up on this current thread and read from the beginning. I am so so sorry about all that Joel had to go through. What a strong person he is (much more than me) and you are also a very strong mom. My thoughts are with you and your son as he recovers from surgery.
Dec12Girl, I'm so sorry that you are so bad right now. I hated the low iodine diet, all I ate was mostly rice cakes for 2 weeks because I was too scared to eat anything else. Please check your PM.
The time after the surgery will be an adjustment. I felt I had to hid my scalp and scar with a scarf when I went out in public. Then it got to a point where I didn't care. My head felt better without anything being on it and that was better for me. Some ppl here have even seen pics of me right after the surgery. I thought I looked horrible, head half shaven, frankenstien staples and brised all over, but they helped me and cared no matter what.
We will be here for you and will care no matter what!
Dia, I had had thryoid problems for a long time. Mine is hypothroidism. I've noticed the outer edges of my eyebrows thinning, but the big thing for me is hair loss. when I start loosing hair, it's time for a check up..
Weird thing for me too Dia is that I was loosing weight like crazy BEFORE I was diagnosed. Once I got on the meds, it was harder. Should have been the other way but I don't do anything the normal way either
Ella...
Off to go get ready for work. I sure hope my ghost is quiet tonight so I can get to bed on time!

Papa said I exceeded my allotment which is funny since I've only used it three times before.
I also got the pack & play I've been wanting for $34.98. I was afraid to wait and see if it'd go lower. DCPI: 030090155 [amazon.com]
Another hitch in the giddy-up for most people getting tested is that doctors rarely run the right panel of tests. Partially b/c they aren't endocrinologists - they don't know which ones need to be run to rule out (or in) thyroid problems. Also, the tests themselves are flawed - the thresholds for "normal" have a huge range and are based on men, not women so what might make a man feel fine (or another woman) makes you feel like crap. Most doctors though, just read the paper from the lab and say you're fine (when you really aren't).
Google Mary Shomon for some better/more in depth info. I really liked another author, too and will post when I think of it. Very illuminating. Hugs to all w/these and other health concerns - it's a PITA

Um, BS on the family history. TOTAL bs in fact. Everyone I know with actual thyroid problems and then CANCER had NO family history. It's time for an endocrinologist honey.

Hope this is your guy!
