Tomorrow I head to Bangkok where I will partake of a small dose of death. On Monday they will scan my neck and check the uptake of radioactivity, and then give me the required dose to deliver a knockout blow to my thyroid. I am taking my camera but not sure they will let me photograph anything (or maybe the radioactivity will wipe my sensor); but I am hoping to be able to provide full coverage of this exciting event.
Or maybe I will just sleep. Feeling increasingly crap and depressed as the thyroid rages unchecked, and will probably feel this way for a while yet. Do not expect the same volume of posts.
She who must be obeyed has been her usual supportive self. Today she did some research on what might be good for me to eat in this condition. I was suggesting donuts, but she proclaimed donuts to be on the list of prohibited foods. After a bit more research she decided there was actually nothing I could eat; so we went and had some therapeutic cake.
I didn’t push my luck and ask why this might be preferable to donuts.
