And you are doing ok? I'm so nervous about stopping it.

Thank you so much for replying! I still have a couple months left till they can submit my paperwork for approval. I too am on plaquenil. Did you have to stop it for surgery?

Congrats! I'm sure everything will be just fine... :-)

Good luck and may God bless you!

I haven't had mine yet, so I'll just say good luck & God bless!

Thanks for bringing this up! I never even thought about juicing as another option... This sounds great, I think I'll give it a try after surgery!

Not that I didn't enjoy your kitty cat, lol.

Lol! That cracks me up. Thanks for the laugh & hang in there!

Sorry to hear that! I have hypothyroid too, although not that severely. I've been on Synthroid for about a year now and it's doing well and stable. Hang in there, it shouldn't take too long to fix hopefully!

Congrats! Keep your head up and keep up the good work!

I also have fibro and some type of unknown autoimmune issues. I am on plaquenil and am dreading for them to tell me I have to stop it! I really hope they don't. I've read several articles on the web that say it isn't necessary to stop it. I hate to say it, but I may continue anyways. There is a gal on here that was able to continue hers and she was fine. I missed my fibro for a couple days once and oh how I hurt! Hope everything works out ok with you!

Awe man, feel bad for you both! Prayers that everything will work out for you all! Hang in there!

I'm so glad you posted this! I will definitely make sure I have things straight! Good luck to you!

Good job! I posted one a bit ago about being able to fit in those skinny plastic doctors office chairs with arms that pinch your outer thighs and knees. It's a good feeling!

I lose too but it offsets the gain of one week prior lol!

I'm kinda the opposite. Part of the reason I've stayed heavy it's because I don't eat, well let me explain... I get up and have never been a breakfast eater, so I won't eat, then lunch rolls around and again not really hungry so I don't eat, by the time dinner rolls around I'm starving so I would eat one huge meal a day then snack all night till bed. So it's been hard for me to adjust and forcing myself to eat all throughout the day, but it's definitely helped me to lose weight and not snack all night, plus it seems like I can make better food choices. It's all such a big adjustment for us all one way or another.

Yeah I understand stopping some meds a week or maybe even two but a month or two seems excessive and honestly cruel unless they are gonna give you something else for pain until surgery... I have fibromyalgia and an undiagnosed autoimmune disorder and I can't imagine not having my meds that long...i'd be bed ridden.

Thanks... I kinda know that going in to it. My husband works at menorah and he hates that I have to have it done there. I'll be extra careful and I'm sure he'll be there to take notes and get on people. Lol... I'm trusting that the Lords got my back!
