[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 629415, member: 1963"] I carry candies, 2 Glucerna bars for after the candies, and if out for any length of time, a sandwich with protein on whole grain bread. My TSH was 6 hundred and something. Just through the roof. I have Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (by biopsy) and it finally killed my thyroid. There's nothing left of it but cysts according to the technetium scan I had done. I'm allergic to iodine, which complicates testing/treating thyroid greatly. It was a huge fight to get the only type of scan that can be done without killing me. I got my new MedicAlert bracelet ordered today. My old one had the allergies listed but not the diabetes. I also updated the info they store. I like nuts, pecans and pistachios especially, and spiced peanuts, but am not all that fond of almonds. My mother says that's because I've never had good, fresh ones.I'm visiting the end of next month and will try some fresh ones then. They are supposed to be better than the other nuts. The sodium thing is a PITA. I not only was drinking too much water, but had cut way back on salt intake because my blood pressure was going up. I'm getting the feeling I can't win. It is sad about Jakey. I took him in a sick, emaciated feral 9 years ago, got him back on his feet, and by then couldn't bear to part with him. He will be with my other departed fur-faces waiting for me. He's currently on strong pain medications, and doesn't seem to be suffering other than being weak and tired. He still likes his cuddles. I am going to miss him terribly. He's a good boy and it's a darned shame. [/QUOTE]
