Hashimoto's Disease

It's Hashimoto's Disease. I thought I had told you all months ago, but clearly, I've been too sick to remember if I blogged or not.
It's an autimmune disease... the thyroid gland is attacked and destroyed (rather successfully) by the immune system. The treatment (at the moment) includes continued supplements and vitamins, as well as a major dietary change: no gluten, no dairy... and preferably no soy or corn.

Yay.

In truth, I am actually feeling quite a bit better. It's just that I'm still feeling a long way from good.
