I thought I'd do an update and some encouragement to those who are facing trials. 😍
Since my last post I have been back to the ER, finally got in with an amazing endocrinologist, and have had meds added. It's all been a whirlwind. I was doing better then all of a sudden I had another spell but I think it was because my thyroid was swinging back so quickly to hypothyroid. Another blood pressure med was added and so far things have been stable with that. Can't say so much for my thyroid. We aren't exactly sure what spun my thyroid out of control but covid is definitely a contender. I have Hashimotos so I'm sure covid teamed up with my immune issue and I lost in that game but did I...... More on that later.
As of right now I'm doing ok. Only issue I am having now is feeling drugged ( that's understandable). If you know me I HATE to take prescription drugs so being on 3 my body is being drugged. And since starting my levothyroxine I am awakened at night with my body in anxiety mode. Not fun but hopefully my body will adjust and that will calm. Still for me it's better than the high blood pressure and all the stuff I was feeling before but it does make for a tired mama. So today's school is games, coloring, looking at books, reading for olders, and those kinds of things.
Now I want to speak about trials. When I was going back and forth to the ER and feeling horrible at home I was asking why?!? I don't know when we will learn to trust and not ask why. I guess cause we are human. But, if I never would've been taken by ambulance to the hospital the first time I wouldn't have met my now endocrinologist. And if someone would've told me about him I would've said ewwwwww no an endocrinologist is not going to listen to me. But, so not true with him. He has been a blessing. So while trials and hard times are not fun they are sometimes necessary. Also it has also made me refocus on what's important. And to put my focus on where it needs to be the Lord. We get so caught up in our life and such we lose focus and need a wake up call. I'm thankful I'm still here to take that wake up call. I want to encourage anyone experiencing a trial or just a little bump in the road to just focus on Jesus. Lay it at His feet because that's all we can do and it's so freeing. 🙌
I am so very thankful to everyone God has sent to minister to my family. I have been amazed at everyone who has loved on my family during this time. Thanks everyone for the meals, calls, messages, and most importantly prayers! Keep the prayers coming. I'm gonna claim complete healing!
