Comment on Living with AutoImmune Diseases by Darlene.
I am 69 in March and have had Hashimotos disease since I was Forty-six. I live on a farm and was a type A personality. You couldn’t get me to stop. Had a son getting married, was looking after the farm as husband was a locomotive engineer and away a lot.. looking after and cooking for an older aunt, etc. Had all the symptoms you had, except for the hair loss. My husband said if I wasn’t sleeping, or crying, I was saying I am not doing that everyday. It is a terrible feeling. My doctor ordered blood work when I asked for something for energy because I wasn’t going to see fifty-six. That’s when they found it. I also developed osteoarthritis, at about the same time. You will get better, once it is under control. I really ha e never had my stamina back, and as I age, the arthritis gets worse. Have had a new knee and will probably need the other done soon. Otherwise, I have a full life and try not to let it get in the way too much. Glad that you have your diagnosis finally. It is sad that no one thinks of this as the problem. I didn’t even know what your thyroid does. It controls every working part in your body. Good Luck, feel better. It will happen.
