Jodie diagnosed....

A couple months ago Jodie went to renew her migraine medication and was told she would need to go in for a blood test. A couple weeks ago, she was asked to come in again for another.

The doc called a couple days ago to tell her that her thyroid hormone production was dangerously low. We freaked out a little, but doing some research, it sounds very treatable with medication. It sounds like a lifetime regimen, with frequent tests to make sure her hormone level is correct.
