10月15日 "-itis" overloadWoe is me - I've really been in the wars this year in regards to my health. At the risk of boring you silly with detailed accounts of my various bouts of ill health, I'll stick to a brief list. Yes, truly fascinating reading at its finest......
3 Gum infections due to impacted wisdom teeth - requiring antibiotics
Recurring bouts of gallstone pancreatitis - antibiotics, morphine (high doses too), heparin
Subsequent removal of my gallbladder
3 Impacted wisdom teeth removed
Tonsilitis - requring antibiotics
Sinusitis - requiring antibiotics
Bronchitis - no more antibiotics please!
On top of this I have Hashimoto's Disease, which is an autoimmune disease of the thyroid gland where antibodies attack the cells which produce thyroid hormone resulting in hypothyroidism. Synthetic thyroid hormones correct the deficiency state, but this does not resolve the autoimmune attack and the antibodies involved can be disruptive to other organs of the body, ie the brain and neurotransmitter activity - linked to Atypical Depression which I suffer from as well as fatigue, cognitive impairment and a few other things.
I am prescibed thyroxine and T3 to correct my thyroid hormone deficiency.
I have Atypical Depression which is related to Hashimoto's. I am on Effexor XR which has been very effective at addressing the depression.
One more thing, I also have Adult ADHD which I am officially diagnosed with and treatment with Stimulant medication has changed my life drastically for the best.
Apart from the above, I'm the epitomy of good health.
Yea - Better Living Through Chemistry = Quality of Life.
