Hi all!
So to start with I've ALWAYS had a tough to manage thyroid medication dose. Although I did have a couple years here and there where my dose would remain unchanged and even lowered on occasion. Since my surgery last year my dosage has required increasing every few months. We switched from Sythroid to Levoxyl and that hasn't made a difference. My last switch was in November to 200 mg Levoxyl with normal in limits blood work in February. I just had blood work last week and my thyroid function is completely out of range again. My TSH is 6.96 with a normal range of 0.40-4.50 while my T4 Free is in range. I have an appointment with my endo tomorrow morning but I was wondering if anyone else had this issue. All of my other labs from both the bariatric doc and my endo are nearly perfect my triglycerides are a smidge high and my D3 is in the low normal range.
I always take my med before bed and the only other medication I take in the evening (within 2 hours) is Singulair and Biotin neither of which I've seen cause absorption issues. My Calcium is in the morning and my Iron mid-day.
Eventually, I am going to max out on the dosage and I'm not sure what that next step is. Has anyone else gone through this?
Thanks for reading!
Best,
Michelle

What Valentina said. Having a deputy there on civil standby is the way to go. If your future ex is there, fine, the deputy will hold the peace. If he's not, then the cop can verify what you are taking in addition to taking video tape before and after removing items. Also have an inventory list of exactly what you took and what you left in case you have to show it to a judge. Try and come up with most of the list ahead of time so you won't have to be there that long. But it's still your apartment and you do not need his permission to go in.
But in the end, other than the sentimental personal stuff, remember it's all just stuff. When I broke up with my live in boyfriend of 6 years, I left with almost nothing. We had a 1400sq ft house that we had purchased together along with all the furniture, a fishing boat and a canoe. Besides my personal belongings, I walked away with a waterbed, a small TV, the computer, the dog and the cat. I Let him have the house and everything else. My new apartment was furnished with milk crates and beach chairs. I just wanted out and I never regretted not getting my "fair share". The dog and cat (Kona and Cladaugh )were the only things that were irreplaceable anyways.

If your name is in an account you are not using then get your name off of it asap. The last thing you need is for him to start bouncing checks just for spite.

You have to do what you have to do. Document all your calls and the information exchanged. When you go in documentation is necessary so video is a great idea. Sounds like some past behavior repeating regarding trying to control you. If spousal support is possible then go for it, divorce is a negotiation put yourself it the best place and go from there. He isn't feeling sorry for you so you can't let old emotions filter in.
Rip off the band aid and get a lawyer. You don't have to be nasty to get respect just expect it.
