Been doing/eating/taking all things Peat-y for just over 3 months now. Only been experimenting with thyroid meds for 2 weeks. A few observations:
* This forum is great. The amount of information here is invaluable.
* I urinate less frequently. This is good!
* I have more body odor. This is not good.
* Most of my family and friends think I'm crazy. It gets so tiring to have to justify and defend your dietary choices all the time. Lately I just don't -- let them think whatever they want.
* My veins are less noticeable. Also, I guess on a related note, I have noticed something peculiar and unexpected: the skin surrounding my anus is a bright pink, not purple-ish like it has always been. Weird, right?
Where the skins changes, it has always appeared somewhat bluish/purple-ish -- now it changes into a bright yellow-y pink. The blue tint is completely gone! This seems to be permanent. It has stayed this way for weeks.
I guess this would be a good sign?
* My sleep has improved a lot. It was always pretty good, but now it's really good. Deep, sound sleep.
* Weight gain has been minimal. Gained a solid 3 pounds, quickly, then that was it. Didn't know what to expect, so this is good.
* Thyroid dosing is tricky -- still working it out. But when you hit a pulse of 85 and a temp of 98.3 (both records for me), it feels amazing!
