Hi All,

It's been a while since I wrote but lately I have been struggling very badly with Hashimoto's disease. It is an autoimmune disease that attacks the thyroid. I have to take thyroid medication but have been struggling to be on it due to the side effects. I've been to the ER more the past month than I've ever been in my life I think. My anxiety has gone up horribly almost to an intolerable amount and feel sluggish with bad brain fog. I am hoping a new medication the Doctor orders for me will help. I have been having issues staying hydrated because of it as well. I am praying to God that he can heal me or help me tolerate the medication I'm on. I've been really scared but have been trying to have faith that things will be ok. I've heard of Hashimoto's before I was diagnosed but never expected to have it. Thank you for reading :)
