The more things change...

Okay, so I went back to the doc today for my chest X-ray, which I will get the results of tomorrow. It was fun (not), because I had to hold still and not cough.

The interesting part, though, came when the nurse went over yesterday's bloodwork with me.

"Well, your white count is a little elevated, but considering that you have an infection, that's not so unusual. However, the interesting thing is, we tested your thyroid levels and... they're low."

O_o??

"Um... y'all increased my dosage," I began, and she nodded.

"It's been about a month, right?"

"Yes." Well, nearly two months, really, since I've had two refills.

She nodded. "Well, considering that your dosage was increased, this level is... too low, so what the doctor wants to do is wait another month, see if things level out." She pulled out paperwork which she started filling out briskly. "So, the week after Christmas, go to the lab and have this bloodwork done, and we'll see."

"And if it's still low?"

"We'll knock you up to 1.25."

o_O??

Okay, so... if I'm still incredibly low, they'll increase my dosage to the level I had wanted them to increase it to back when they dropped my dosage from 1.0 to .88??

*starts to twitch*

All I gotta say is... this is going to be one interesting month.
