Thanks, Cathleen! I'll see what I have before giving everything away. I know you enjoy sharing with your friends so I will take some for myself and take some to share so I can get double the enjoyment!!

I'm fine with the hypothyroidism. It started about 5 years ago. Went undiagnosed for so long. Changed doctors a couple of times, trying to find answers. My doctor was covering all the bases and decided to do a lung scan (I'm an ex-smoker). That's when they discovered that my thyroid was enlarged with 5 nodules, one of which is solid and large enough for concern. It is NOT cancerous (most thyroid tumors are not, and even when they are, they rarely metastasize), but it can explain why I have been battling this exhaustion. Now that I'm on meds, I'm doing better most days, but every now and then, I get that exhausted/sleepy/drugged feeling. When that happens, I just let myself sleep. It usually only lasts 1-2 days, then I'm okay again. 😊
