14-01. Today was not the greatest of days. 2.5 years ago I was diagnosed with an overactive thyroid and after all that time of the doctor telling me that the medication he gave me should take it back to normal and "cure" me I found out today that it doesn't look likely. I was told that I now have to kill my thyroid off either by having it removed by surgery or by taking radioiodine. I will then be on thyroxine for the rest of my life. Joy. I wasn't very happy of being told this and then having to make a decision straight away so I have to go back in March (the day before my birthday, again - joy) and discuss it again then. I just can't wait to feel better again - not being constantly tired all the time will be the best thing.

I'm giving this to my Speech Anatomy professor since she's writing one of my letters of recommendation for grad school.
Dr. Shroyer called today to tell me what the lab results were for Tigger. It appears that he has hyperthyroidism, which is accounting for his weight loss. After he finishes the course of antibiotics he's on now, I'll have to bring him back in to be weighed, and we will proceed from there as to what kind of treatment we'll do.
With thyroid problems, the condition can be treated with diet or pills, and since he will be really hard to give pills to, diet might be the best way to go, except for how I'll be able to keep his two brothers out of his food, and him out of theirs! Pills would probably be easier, that is, if I could get him used to taking them, which doesn't seem like it's going to happen! I will try Joan's suggestion of pill pockets as soon as I can get to the pet store. That might help, hopefully.
Thanks to everyone who has been praying for us! This weekend was the best I've seen in my store since I've worked there, and I will be hitting commission this week! Please continue to pray that sales are steadily better, as I still have two years of property tax to catch up on, and no homeowner's insurance, and the extra vet bills have been killing me financially! God has been providing, but I sure could use a few months of prosperity to pull out of the hole I'm in, and regardless of whether I do or not, I want to be able to take care of my pets to the best of my ability. They are good boys, and all getting older with issues, but they have given me a lot of joy and companionship through the years, and I want them cared for and happy!
I'll keep everyone informed as to Tigger's progress as we go along. For anyone who doesn't know, Tigger has his own group here on Flickr, which is where I found out about him before I adopted him! Check out "Tigger The Gatekeeper's Garden Clubhouse" to learn about his very interesting life, and to share your own kitty pics! This cat is quite a character, with a personality that is just fantastic. He's known all over the world, and I keep running into people who've encountered him in his days at Sugar Mill Gardens, where he was a fixture for years before he came to live with me. One girl even told me about him being in her wedding pictures when she was wed in the outdoor chapel area! No one seems to know exactly how old Tigger is, but we do know that he started his life out being called "Jack", by his first person. Somewhere along the line, he became Tigger, and has endeared himself to thousands of people, who have become his fans, of which I am one, also!
It was such good news to hear that there was a tangible reason for his weight loss, because if thyroid was ruled out, cancer was the most likely thing left. Hopefully we will be able to get Tigger healthy again, and he'll be able to live with me for many years to come!
This pic was taken years ago in Sugar Mill Gardens. Below is the original, first edit. I readjusted a few things, and also used the Advanced HDR filter on iPiccy to give a little more detail. The changes aren't blatant, but I think it's better.

A review of medical records of patients treated at an academic tertiary care center suggests that obese patients present to their physicians with more advanced stage and more aggressive forms of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), according to a report published Online First by Archives of Surgery.
Thyroid cancer is on the rise on the United States and most of the increase is due to PTC, although the authors write that it is debatable whether the increase is caused by an enhanced risk of cancer or an increase in detection. Obesity is recognized as a risk factor for a variety of cancers, the authors provide as study background.
"Our study shows that those patients with increasing BMI have a progressively increasing risk in presenting with late-stage PTC. This finding is especially seen in the obese and morbidly obese populations," the researchers comment.
Avital Harari, M.D., and colleagues at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine, Los Angeles, reviewed the medical records of all patients older than 18 who underwent total thyroidectomy (removal of most or all of the thyroid gland) as an initial procedure for PTC or its variants from January 2004 through March 2011.
The final analysis included 443 patients with an average age of 48.2 years. Patients were divided into four BMI (body mass index) groups: normal (18.5-24.9), overweight (25-29.9), obese (30-39.9) and morbidly obese (=40).
"Greater BMI was associated with more advanced disease stage at presentation. Specifically, the obese and morbidly obese categories presented more as stage III or IV disease," according to the study results.
Researchers also note the obese and morbidly obese groups also presented with a higher prevalence of PTC tall cell variant, "suggesting that these groups have a higher risk of more aggressive tumor types."
"Given our findings, we believe that obese patients are at a higher risk of developing aggressive thyroid cancers and thus should be screened for thyroid cancer by sonography, which has been shown to be more sensitive in detecting thyroid cancer than physical examination alone," the authors conclude.
In an invited critique, Quan-Yang Duh, M.D., of the University of California, San Francisco, writes: "Harari and colleagues from UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) showed us one more reason to be concerned about the current obesity epidemic - obese patients have more advanced thyroid cancer."
Duh continues: "This parallel increase in the rates of obesity and thyroid cancer is intriguing, but without a much larger population study, we cannot determine whether obesity causes thyroid cancer. However, the authors found that higher body mass index is associated with a later stage of thyroid cancer."
"For obese patients with papillary thyroid cancer, the bad news is that the cancer is likely to be more advanced. The good news is that thyroid operation remains safe even in obese patients with advanced disease," Duh concludes. thyroidcancer.livejournal.com/767.html
if you've followed my blog, you know the story. Undiagnosed thyroid disease leads to huge weight gain leads to other health problems. No matter how many hours I spend in the gym, unable to lose any weight. Finally diagnosed as "insulin resistant" by a female endocrinologist last month (explaining the inability to lose weight despite my efforts.) Put on Metformin- combination of 1-2 hr nightly workouts and exclusion of foods that are not DIABETIC FRIENDLY (I miss you, coke.) I am finally down 20 pounds from my highest weight of 237. I have a long way to go (another 70 before I can go off metformin) but at least I have progress. Finally. Am THRILLED. (breathes)
I had an operation in August of last year to remove my thyroid (due to having Graves disease). It was very painful after the op and still is painful now but not as bad. At the time of recovery, I thought that I wouldn't want to wear necklaces again, as they'd hurt me too much.
In Sept I was out shopping and stubbled upon this gorgeous necklace and as it was reduced to such a bargain price I couldn't let it slip away and suddenly that thought of no longer wearing necklaces was gone!
I couldn't wear it immediately, so had to wait a little while longer before I got the chance and when I did I got lots of lovely comments about it. I'm so pleased I bought it now and it looks fab with my little black (dress up/down) dress.
I'm about halfway through a three-month trial of thyroid medication to see if it helps me feel better. I was getting stressed trying to remember if I'd taken each day's pill, so now I have this box to help me keep track.
Savangasana is the most important pose to stimulate thyroid gland and control thyroxin. This is the most effective yoga pose where blood flow from legs to head region due to its inverted condition therevy helps in curing of thyroid.

Today is a sad day for the people that knew the three stray cats that lived together on the side of one of the buildings in the town of Piscataway. For the past week or two Maggie has not been eating much and has been getting very thin. We think she developed a thyroid problem, which is common in older cats. I noticed last Tuesday she was not her usual self and after talking to others that knew Chelsea, Santana and Maggie, they all agreed something was wrong with her.
I went there this past Friday and Maggie did not jump into my FedEx truck the second I pulled up to where the three cats lived. She was just sitting on the sidewalk and had a distant look in her eyes. She did eat some wet food I gave her, but I knew something was wrong. I gave her a few kisses and she did give me the usual head bumps (the way she will kiss you) and was purring in return. I went to see the cats yesterday (Sunday) and I did not see Maggie.
This morning one of the girls at work there noticed Maggie in the bushes about a foot behind the house we built for the cats nearest the sidewalk. Maggie had died sometime over the weekend.
We think all three of the strays are between the ages of 7-10 years old. I first met Chelsea, Santana and Maggie back in March of 2009. Maggie was always the first to jump in my truck or even my car to say hello and to see what kind of food I bought with me. Maggie was the one who also helped me eat rice pudding the few times I would bring it as a snack for myself. Maggie always drove Chelsea crazy but the three cats always stuck together.
Chelsea and Santana are still doing good and they will continue to be fed daily and looked after. The houses we made for them are still there and they keep inside them when it is cold or wet outside.
The workers put Maggie in a blanket and she will be buried near where she lived. We will put a marker over the burial site and I will print a picture or something to put there too.
You will not be forgotten, Mags. She was annoying and a pest to Chelsea, but she also could make you laugh and forgive her too at the same time.
Goodbye honey, and thanks !!!
If the natural flow of your everyday life is as fragmented as this beauty's...
If you can't get out of the roller coaster loop of moods, lack of energy, chronic fatigue, exhaustion, non-focal pain, digestive system problems and even cognitive confusion?
Maybe you also suffer from a problem with thyroid function, hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.

אם אתם לא מצליחים לצאת מהלופ של רכבת ההרים במצבי הרוח, חוסר אנרגיה עייפות כרונית, תשישות, כאבים לא מוקדים, בעיות במערכת העיכול ואפילו בלבלולים קוגניטיביים?
אולי גם אתם סובלים מבעייה בתפקוד בלוטת התריס, פעילות יתר של בלוטת התריס או תת פעילות בלוטת התריס.
Because you know your animals best you will be the first to notice abnormal behavior and therefore we have compiled a list of symptoms which should not be ignored and when they appear should contact the emergency vet soon!
1. Multiple urination and urination problems - These symptoms can often indicate a wide range of diseases, including behavioral problems, kidney failure, diabetes, thyroid problems, urinary tract infections, and more. If you think your dog is drinking or urinating excessively, bring it to the emergency vet for inspection
Signs such as repeated attempts to urinate, urinary incontinence, and blood urination can result from a wide variety of factors. From urinary tract infection to urinary incontinence without treatment can eventually lead to death. Therefore, if such signs appear, it is recommended to contact an emergency vet.
2. Loss of appetite or cessation of eating - Loss of appetite in our dog can be due to many different reasons and in the way it is among the first signs that appear in the condition of illness.
Loss of appetite and lack of eating per se (if they last longer than 24 hours) may affect and affect the health of the dog regardless of the cause of the initial cause. In such a situation it is recommended to diagnose the cause and treat it quickly in order to shorten the time when the dog is not eating while providing the dog with supportive care.
3. Apathy, exhaustion or weakness - manifested in indifference, poor reaction to normal stimuli (name calling, noises, smells, contact). If apathy persists over a period of time, this should not be ignored even if there is no other sign.
4. Diarrhea / vomiting - In this case too, these symptoms can be caused by a wide variety of medical conditions or conditions related to the digestive system or other digestive system.
If this is a diuretic or black diarrhea, this may indicate bleeding to the digestive system in its various parts. Vomiting can also suggest gastrointestinal bleeding, especially the upper gastrointestinal tract. In case of vomiting or diarrhea, contact your emergency vet.
5. Non-productive vomiting - Frequent and unsuccessful attempts to vomit may indicate gastric inversion (GDV). This situation is a life threatening situation that requires immediate contact with an emergency vet.
6. Fainting or fainting - a situation in which the dog is unable to stand on its own feet, in some cases the dog quickly regains its temper and in others it takes him some time to recover. Any case of breakdown or weakness is a good reason to contact an immediate emergency vet.
7. Twitching - Twitch is a general name for a varied appearance of nerve signs. In the language of the people, it is called epilepsy (although epilepsy is also a type of spasm, but not every spasm is epilepsy).
The spasm can be mild and can be expressed, for example, in facial movements ("bags") and can be more difficult to manifest in the collapse of the dog, including involuntary movements of the legs, incontinence (feces and urine). The spasm can last from seconds to long minutes, in these cases it usually takes time for the dog to recover and regain itself.
Spasms usually result from over-stimulation of the nervous system when the cause can be systemic or focused on the nervous system. There are life-threatening convulsions. In any case, contact an emergency vet:

Even at the Park
Today I met a young woman with thyroid cancer. I was at the park with Darren and the dogs, and a small dachshund named Betsy ran to us floppy-eared, sweet. Betsy was more concerned with dog socializing than being a therapy dog to her owner, Heather, at least that is what Heather said. With a scar across the base of her throat she explained she had thyroid cancer, had two operations to remove lymph nodes and had been through radiation. The last 1.5 years of her life have been nothing but this. And with deep knowledge and understanding of Heather’s tired life, I nodded. She called us sisters. Sisters of Cancer. And I felt touched because it was true. We were sisters, two strangers who had met to have an exchange of experiences, to shake hands and acknowledge each other. It was no coincidence we met. It was simply a positive confirmation of our lives, accumulated and bright like the green grass gathered moist and soft under the shade of a lovely tree.

Glande thyroïde de Cichlidé. Les follicules thyroïdiens sont rassemblés en petits amas près de l’aorte ventrale, à l'endroit où les premières artères branchiales afférentes
en émanent. Au centre de l’image, on voir l’une de ces artères, remplie de globules rouges nucléés (brun noir), et entourée par une demi-douzaine de petits follicules dont les cavités sont remplies de thyroglobuline ou colloïde (rouge brique), forme de stockage des hormones T3 et T4.
Les adipocytes se reconnaissent à leur énorme taille (aussi grande que celle des follicules) ainsi qu'à leur cytoplasme incolore. En bas à droite, fragment de cartilage hyalin

arteries leave the ventral aorta. The cavities of the follicles are filled with thyroglobulin (here brick red), a glycoprotein which stores T3 and T4. In deep blue (< Alcian blue) : piece of hyaline cartilage and the adipocytes have unique features such as their size (as big as that of the follicles) and their unstained cytoplasm.

My first time making fish stock. I am using two carcasses from wild-caught Thai snapper. Fish heads should be included -- they include the thyroids which are full of iodine. Whole Foods filleted them for me -- and made me a separate package of bones and heads. Easy-peasy!
