i have since been re-tested and now diagnosed with Hashimoto's. And I actually read somewhere that b/c it is an autoimmune disease, and pregnancy causes your immune system to vamp up, that it likely is a trigger (that and miscarriage) for Hashi's to rear it's head. Supposedly you are genetically predisposed to Hashi's, so if you're not already showing symptoms, then you likely will after you get pregnant.
So i've been on the synthroid now for just over two weeks. i will have levels re-checked in mid-May, and we will go from there I guess.
oh, the excitement....
