The weight gain, changes in body temperature, hair thinning, heart palpitations, headaches and lightheadedness, and many more symptoms too numerous to mention - and mostly just feeling "not myself" -- is sometimes overwhelming. I wonder how long this will last and how much more I can take. Like many who posted here, my anxiety is often through the roof for no obvious reason. It's scary. To echo others, I feel like I've aged five years (in just one).

Oh, I am SO relieved ... This thread is a real public service, helping me stay on an even keel. I was starting to think I was losing my mind or headed into Alzheimer's.

mjc: I actually did come to a complete shuddering stop yesterday.
After Sydney BIL rang at 6.30am to say that he's moving in with FIL and will arrive in a few weeks, it took a little bit to sink in. I thought I was just doing my morning non-work routine: coffee, toast, MOL...then suddenly it was after 10 am and I hadn't showered, couldn't stand up...was meant to go to hydrotherapy at 1pm and had to google the directions - managed to do that by 11 am, but still no shower. Realised by 11.30 that it just wasn't going to happen, I was almost panicking at the thought of having to get into the car. I rang and cancelled. Then I broke into tears for two hours. Seriously.
By 2.15pm I was just OK enough to shower so I could get my grey roots covered at the salon around the corner. Still hadn't brushed my hair all day, and still felt really shaky. Am horrified that my mouth has two deep scowl grooves down my chin, and I can't manage to erase them with an 'at-rest' smile.
Was in bed by 8pm.
BIL sent an e-mail: he'll be here in 3 weeks.

I have way too many to have the derm do it, don't want to spend the money.
I've managed to um....manage some of them myself, but there are so damn many of them.
