You can have my metabolism at the moment if you like
It's quite comfortably losing me a pound a day despite eating over 4,500 Kcals

I'm not liking it :(
Still, blood test tomorrow and hopefully find out what the fuck is happening on Thursday

I do hope you're ok
I would be happy to borrow it for a week though.

I've been told it's probably clown aids on account of my massive feet :P
Or just stress

ah, I had that
although not quite such fast weight loss, although it was close. They eventually gave me radioactive iodine and I didn't get superpowers

Not even super attractiveness to the opposite sex?

( Maximinimus you stick around I'll make it worth your while, Mon 3 Jan 2011, 12:10, Reply)

nope
the radioactive stuff slowed my thyroid and made me fatter. To be fair, I was married at the time, so it was pretty much a moot point

I've got a hyper-active thyroid
But the Doc is reluctant to go down the radioactive iodine route.

So I'm knocking back dozens of pills a day instead.

bastards decided it was better to break mine,
then fix it up with pills, so I'm on pills forever

Are you taking thyroxine?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 3 Jan 2011, 12:19, Reply)

yeah, loads of it
they try and keep it a bit slow, though, for health reasons, which sucks, but it's OK at the mo.

I was being sized up for surgery the last time I went to the hospital
But they were unsure if my eyesight would suffer too much.

I've got another appointment with the hospital on the 6th, so I'll find out more then.

Nasty
I thought that happened when it was fast, not slow. Fucksocks, I need my eyes

Thyroid function is ticked on my blood test
If it is that I won't be too disappointed, free prescription win!
( Maximinimus you stick around I'll make it worth your while, Mon 3 Jan 2011, 12:18, Reply)

if it is that, install a tap on your veins
because they ALWAYS want your blood. Either that or there are more vampires round here than I thought

Are you really tired and thirsty?
If you are, it might be diabetes.

You can't be too disappointed with it
I remember you saying a couple of weeks back that you still wanted to lose weight. So being able to eat what you like and still lose weight sounds like a win-win option
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Mon 3 Jan 2011, 12:15, Reply)

The problem with that is that I really don't have any weight to lose now
It was all in my head you see, planted there by that evil thing I used to love

you also get the shakes, though
I certainly found I couldn't sit still or concentrate on things
