High on Water
I awoke very groggy and very gravelly-voiced this morning, (and had lost a lot more hair in last night's shower and brush out of dry hair this morning.
I went ahead and did hot/cold fomentations on my throat this morning, alternating 1 minute hot wet washcloth, with ice in a baggie.
I could only handle 20 seconds at a time with the cold, so did 1 minute with the hot...you are always supposed to END WITH THE COLD any other time you do this, so I definitely ended with cold.
Voice is already clearing up and will report on the other symptoms when I know more. I seem to be stuck again in the ways of hypothyroidism, even now that I'm painting my thyroid directly...am getting quite frustrated!
Thanks for this!
PS: Am hoping nutritionist/acupuncturist's appt today can lead me to some help before hair/analysis comes back in two weeks...appt includes iridology. If I learn something, I shall share, if not, I may take a break. Even when people KNOW you have problems that adversely affect your mind, you can still be taken at face value, and I don't want to be misread, or injurious to others with "woe is me" type posting. I definitely feel "woe is me-ish" at the moment, but I also know it is due to the hypothyroidism. One day at a time!
