Aaah, now I understand. So were not taking anything away from her but even helping her - and while you didn't get nearly the money you'd usually get for this amount of work, a part of your reward was in the reading itself.

So you even performed a good deed and were enjoying yourself at the same time.

Cheers!

Hey folks,

I've done my 21st blood donation this morning - starting the second bucket.

Cheers!

Oh my... you must be bloodless by now!

Markus · « **Reply #703 on:** April 06, 2014, 10:10:04 pm »

Yeah, 10.5 liters in total sounds quite a lot, eh?

Agnes · « **Reply #704 on:** April 19, 2014, 12:38:25 pm »

I am moving to the new flat on next Saturday!

Well.. Most of the stuff is taken to the flat. The bed is almost ready

Unfortunately many things (like books, clothes) will be in the boxes or vacuum bags because we don't have money for the wardrobe or a bookcase

When we clean up after the moving, I will upload some pics

Also, we need to buy the desks, until this mome nt, the computers will be on the table

I'm so glad because we have 7 times better Internet connection that we used to have in our previous home

and it's very cheap (when you sign the agreement for 2 years

). TV works great!

I will keep you updated, if you want

Ouch!

Well, usually, when you start taking drugs for thyroids, it's forever... That's the reason I'm crossing fingers to keep my values normal for. But, as far as I know, if you're in your doctor's hands, there must be no problem. I even know one colleage of mine who has no thyroid, as it had to be removed. And I know because I was told of, as I've never seen any problem with her.

That's terrible if the higher rate of problems with hormones have to do with Chernobyl. Of course I know the consequences of the accident are terrible and long lasting... but having those in several generations is, at least, unfair

Agnes · « **Reply #714 on:** May 14, 2014, 11:05:49 am »

Sometimes the thyroid must be removed because of the changes in it (some tumors inside etc.) I guess that your colleage must take hormones..

Lucky me, so far I take the smallest doze of the hormone, another bright side is that this medicine is veeery cheap here - ~6 PLN for the box of 50 pills (1,5€).

Btw. Do you know that when you are pregnant (or want to get pregnant) you MUST control the thyroid hormones' values? I've got informed that unhealed thyroid problems might cause e.g. problems with getting pregnant or abortion, or the baby may have thyroid problems too, or if the baby is born healthy, might in have the problems with concentration and learning in the future. It is VERY IMPORANT TO CONTROL OUR THYROID HORMONES..

Luth · « **Reply #715 on:** May 14, 2014, 07:41:06 pm »

Yes, I suppose she might take the subsitute for the thyroid. And I know a lot of people who is taking pills because they've hipo or hiperthyroidism. In fact, as I say, I cross my fingers I last to have to, as I've been told I'll eventually have some problem (probably hipo).

And yes, I know it's important to control it at pregnancy. The real problem is when you don't know you have problems and don't medicate yourself... being pregnant. But if you know, your doctor knows, and you are well controlled, there might be no problem so far

It's weird, how a huge amount of people I know have some type of thyroid problems... and I don't think Chernobyl reached so much here. I suppose the polution, our way of life, what we eat... everything is changing us in all levels, and thyroids might be very sensitive to it all...

Agnes · « **Reply #716 on:** May 14, 2014, 08:09:21 pm »

Maybe you are right, Luth.
In my case it's rather hipo. I hope you won't have the problems with thyroid.

Persephone · « **Reply #717 on:** May 17, 2014, 06:12:25 pm »

Hello dear Agnes,

I am sorry to read about your health problems :-/ I myself am supposed to go to the endocrynologist every year for check up too. Because my thyroid seems to be rather lazy. Also we have this problem in family - my grandmother had her thyroid removed and had to take some pills still.

Yes, it has to be checked during the pregnancy. It may get crazy even with a person who never had problems with thyroid before.

So the doctor already told you that you will have to take the pills in longtermed view?

Hm, I also worry for getting pregnant cause of my endometriosis and few other problems. Just yesterday I found a new doctor for myself. Was sent for few tests and on July 14th there are some more.

Agnes · « **Reply #718 on:** May 17, 2014, 07:38:29 pm »

Haven't seen the doctor after the last blood tests, he told me to take all the pills he wrote (100 pills, today I took 50th). When I will finish the second box of Euthyrox (the med), I will contact him and show the test results.

Persephone · « **Reply #719 on:** May 17, 2014, 08:12:00 pm »

Good luck with that, Agnes
