Cortef day #1
Before I leave the house in the morning, I take my thyroid meds. These must be taken on an empty stomach. Then as I leave I walk out my front door and gather up the Wall St Journal. This morning I made a very interesting “ohhhh” noise when I bent over to get my paper.
Now If I were a good 85 that noise wouldn’t be so unusal. However I am less than 1/2 that age and am a yogi! I can wrap my legs, arms, etc around in strange and unusual postures.
Another fabulous side effect of hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue. But today is different. Today is my first day on Cortef. I take it 2x a day, once with breakfast and once with lunch. Now at 4:40pm I am here to tell you I feel a difference.
It isn’t a HUGE difference. But I can tell. My joints ache less. I am not completely exhausted.
Imagine what wonders may happen by day four!
Small improvement but I have been down for so long that I wanted to note a positive progression.
On a commentary note, I appreciate all of your items and suggestions and I have been down that road and therefore respect all the items mentioned. I have a tempurpedic bed, sleep like a log, used to work out in the am but don’t right now, watch my eating habits, caffiene consumption after 5pm, etc. All this means that I intend to keep up good habbits and perhaps soon, I will be able to go riding horses for I am sad to admit, only the third time in my life. Crazy especially since my one of my best friend’s has a horse and I am the benefactor of several horse shoes!!
More on day #2~

Just hoping that all of the horseshoes are facing the right way.
In (somewhat) relating to the horseback riding thing… Well that would be an excuse to see if one could endure the northern weather to do something such as a sleigh ride. Ironically I couldn’t quite find a google of a place anywhere near cmu that still has something such as that- any ideas??
