A general catchup type thing

annathepiperWent and had another appointment with my endoc today and told him a number of things. One, about the BFFN. Two, that I thought that having me on the T3 as well as the T4 was a good idea. Three, I'd felt fabulous initially after going on the T3 and while in Japan, but that when we got back and the weather got colder, I started feeling more sluggish. Four, that as a result of the BFFN I was a lot stressier than usual. Five, that I'd ditched my birth control after my cancer diagnosis.
All of which amounted to his rearranging my prescriptions again. I've been bumped down to 125mcg of T4 and bumped up to 10mcg of T3. And, he wrote me the T4 prescription for the generic version this time rather than Synthroid, which I haven't ever had before. Ten bucks cheaper doesn't suck, though I don't know if there'll be any actual physiological difference taking generic T4. We'll see what happens when I start the new dosages tomorrow. If my head explodes, y'all will know what happened.
Meanwhile, I have acquired the second half of season 3 of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, thanks to a fortuitously timed 15-percent-off Barnes and Noble coupon arriving in the mail. Muahaha. I am well armed now for recovery days next week. And when I run out of Voyage, I've got the Dresden DVDs![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
gamera_spinning so kindly sent me, as well as some Norwegian ones from ravyngyngvar.
Tomorrow we're probably going to go see the new Queen Elizabeth movie, and on Sunday, there will be Jam!sutures1 will be joining us, so we'll have five people instead of four. If anybody wants to see my five and raise me, better sing out so I'll know how much pie we need. ^_^
And last but not least, I am within 3-4K of finishing Queen of Souls. I may even get it done before Surgery Day. Go me! That'll leave November for a half-Nano attempt on my part, and ideally also following up with Baen on the status of Faerie Blood and getting Lament of the Dove back out the door where it belongs.
Miles since the 22nd: 10.9
Miles out of Hobbiton: 2433.9
Miles out of Isengard: 640.9
Miles to Minas Tirith: 145.1
