My problem with my endo's fixation on TSH is this: The antibodies at play in any form of autoimmune thyroid disease can skew TSH. So, it's important to look at Free Ts. It's not uncommon for TSH to be suppressed in Graves' patients even when their other values are ideal. But her nurse said something about how my disease was so "mild" that it wouldn't show on the Free Ts. That just doesn't make any sense. And if it does make sense, I'm just at a point--in terms of my lack of confidence--that I'll need to hear that from someone else.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
