    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    That you can drink 4 ltrs of water a day and ami literally sucks it up. I don’t know how you manage to drink that much and to still be left dehydrated due to a medication is rough.

    Big time. Apparently it’s the reason my gums are not great as I produce very little saliva, and the reason I have to take eye drops every day

    Well, as requested by the doctor, I’ve been upping my fluid intake. Thursday I had 4.5l, yesterday 5l. Is it possible to drown that way??? I never realised how hard it is to drink that much lol.

    It’s been a long, long time since my thyroid was as low as it is (not since I had to have the radioactive iodine treatment that destroyed my thyroid) - I’d forgotten, but apparently it could take up to 6 weeks for the change in dose to make a change in the symptoms. Looking back, I should have realised there was an issue - low mood, cold all the time, struggling not to gain weight, dry skin, damaged nails, exhausted, aching. I mean, duh!
