So maybe I *wasn't* being rubbish!
I aten't dead... BUT I am also not apologising for being rubbish. When I saw my GP about a health issue recently I got a locum, mentioned I'd had highish but not high-enough-to-treat results for thyroid a couple of years back, and he cheerfully said, "Oh, I'll have you tested again to make sure nothing's changed." Lo and behold, it has got worse to the point I am now treatable. So okay, I haven't felt up to doing much and I've got fat, but I've basically been fighting my endocrine system this whole time, because it wants me to be sleepy and chubby. Kind of like being a were-bear, but only my glands got changed, I guess. I'm now on thyroxine. Given thyroid can affect quite a lot of things, I'm really hoping for an improvement in my overall health, though it can take four to six weeks for changes to be noticeable. As a couple of other things have also worsened, probably thanks to the weight gain, I'm planning to do much more exercise on...
