i don't have a thyroid anymore, haven't for 10 yrs now. Well, i have a teensy little piece, but i am on synthroid. Allergy tests showed i am allergic to maple pollen and dust. i am meticulous about the dust and i run a hepa filter all the time. i do get very fatigued when my allergies act up. One suggestion for anyone else with allergy troubles is a saline spray.

i take a variety of meds for a few diffferent conditions but none of them started around the same time as this stuff... and the predictablility with the periods is the big hint i think. Like now, two periods almost back to back, within days. Ugh.

bc pills have not helped but i think it's because they keep dropping the estrogen instead of raising it. i am going to be begging for a referral to a gyno at wed's appt.

with bc pills:
week1= several happy, "normal" days
week2=slip into depression
week3= deeper depression with suicidal feelings
week4= about the same as week 3

without bc pills (and assuming a regular 28 day cycle which lately may or may not be the case)
week1=happy
week2=deeply depressed
week3= irritable and even aggressive
week4=sobbing, weeping, unreasonable emotion-based decision making.

somebody kill me.

the meds i take are:
lamictal 400mg, clonazepam for RLS and it's PRN, synthroid, lyrica, aerius, losec
