Not Cancer

Well, I got my test results last week and I do not have cancer. The nodule is benign. The doctor suggested that I might have a disease called Hashimotos Thyroiditis, which is an autoimmune disease of the thyroid. It destroys the thyroid gland until it cannot make hormones anymore and will eventually make one hypothyroid. I saw an endocrinologist (a specialist) last week and she ordered more bloodtests to see if I really do have this disease. I have not gotten the bloodtest yet.

I went to see my acupuncturist and he thinks that if I do have this disease I can cure it.

I have also been doing more yoga (opening up the throat chakra). I might have some kind of energy blockage there that is related to all of this. It could also be related to my creative block.

Must balance and purify chakras - stat!

I have also almost completely eliminated soy from my diet and am trying to not get stressed out so much.

Anyway, I will give updates as I get them... getting ready to go hiking with Santino to get some exercise. We did the radio show last night (1 - 3 AM) and just woke up (it is 1 PM on Sunday now). I will be posting some archives of the show here soon!

Namaste! :)

Exercising and Losing Weight

For the past two and a half weeks weeks I have been exercising and dieting to lose some weight. Since I moved to Virginia from Maryland in 2006 I had somehow managed to put on about 18 pounds. Yikes! I think most of it was added in the last year when I started suffering from depression. This has happened to me so many times in my life. It is exasperating that I keep going through this cycle of putting on weight and then having to bust my ass to take it off. Comparatively to other incidences, eighteen pounds is not really not that bad, though.

Two and a half weeks ago I started my new yoga class, started riding my bike to get lunch at work, started going to the gym to do cardio and swim twice or three times a week, and hike on the weekends.

Things are going well as of this morning, as I have lost five pounds. Yay! That means I have thirteen to go before I get back to where I started a year or two ago.

If I am really motivated to go further, I might be able lose six or seven more punds to get back to the kind of shape I was in when I lived in Philadelpia. That would be really awesome - as technically that was medically my "ideal" weight, as well as when I felt and looked my best.

More About My Thyroid

So a couple of weeks ago I had a sonogram done on my thyroid gland. They found a nodule on the right side. Last monday I had a thyroid scan done (they injected radioactive iodine into my blood and then took pictures with this HUGE robotic rotating machine in the radiology unit at the hospital). They found that the nodule is "cold" - meaning that it was not a growth which is producing T4 & T3 hormones. Next I have an appointment at the hospital next week to have a biopsy done on the nodule. I also made an appointment with an Endocrinologist - a specialist for problems with the thyroid gland.

From the reading I have done, I have a 85% chance that the nodule is benign. I should find out the results of my biopsy in about a week and a half!
