Thanks again OneRiffTooMuch and thank you Moose and BlackPup. I really appreciate your input.

Great to see you again BlackPup. We don't seem to cross paths much these days. As you can see I am making mini steps towards med treatment. Its still scary but I am too tired to fight it anymore. It took me 2 years of hellish exhaustion before I would take meds to stabilize my thyroid. When I finally relented within a week it was like night and day the difference. I said to myself then I had been foolish to resist so long. I can be pretty stubborn. Like that wasn't obvious. lol.
