Improvement has been slow and frustrating.

I've been on Synthroid for a month, and I feel better. My last two blood tests brought stronger doses. I was informed the same day in both cases. The third blood test brought no call or increase of dosage.

I ate a half of a banana today. It was good, not great, but good enough. A few nights ago I ate some (8) well spiced pinto beans. I threw up an hour or so later. Not sure if it was the beans, but it did feel like some of the skin was stuck at the back of my tongue. That might have been caused by the thick saliva.

Red bell peppers taste good to me, green, not so much. It's probably the sugar content. The skins are troublesome.

I get cravings, but usually end up disappointed. This time it is green beans, good cooked to death green beans in the delicious liquor with bacon floating in it.

Coffee is good with Cumin, but I can't drink a full cup.

I still can't handle hard cheeses like cheddar.

My PEG tube is still uncomfortable. The heavy winter clothes are causing the discomfort.

My beard is slowly returning.

All in all l'm improving. Thanks for all the love and support I've received here.
