@Shadav that so sucks. I'm really sorry. I have thyroid disease too and like have been on natural thyroid replacement forever. My thyroid is totally suppressed, but oddly my T4 is on the lower side. Lithium can kill your thyroid and since my mom and sis both have issues, I was expecting them. It's been stable an awesome for about 10 years. I have no symptoms of ANYTHING like, over thyroid. Synthroid just did not agree with me
My "new" PCP unfortunately the ex work one, well she was a NUT on how Synthroid was the only way, and like she had had thyroid cancer and stuff and so she "knew it all." I actually wish she had not disclosed this, as otherwise like every new PCP I tell them to go lecture themselves.
However, since the off patent synthroid did some study that the brand name was better AND ALL OTHER THYROID THINGS are bad, well, good luck finding a PCP not shoving it at you. She was all, "You are going to die your TSH is too low." I was like, "Nope, it doesn't even matter on natural thyroid as long as everything balances out." Anyway since I had never had "Brand name" label Synthroid like, she convinced me. My TSH went TOTALLY in the toilet like 0.001 or something and my T3 or T4 or whatever, I forget was super high. I had all these weird symptoms of like thyroid stuff and I kept emailing her and she would be like, "Wait until the lab work (8 weeks away) and I was like "NOOOO this is not cool." I got my lab work after asking about a jillion staff if it was kosher and they said it was fine and gave it to me.
In the process of firing my PCP like I asked to be bridged to my old medication and like, she filled the wrong medication and then when I emailed her very STERNLY and was like "look do I need to take this higher up the chain?" (I meant her SUPRERVISOR or something) she filed a HIPPA report alleging I had gotten my own labwork inapproriately. I have never receieved a HIPPA report and the woman in charge of those was evil. I was such a mess I lost 4 days of time and well, bad things happened.
The head of the program was DYING for me to file a report against her because then THEY control the process but I was like, "Nope, not gonna happen."
I have 1--4 years to file various complaints with various departments but I doubt I will be unless something very strange happens, in which case I would consider it. I downloaded all my emails and kept everything because some of it was so blatantly WRONG.
AS IS CONCRETE OMG I felt like Rapunzel, shoveling that creepy stuff and like I am not a good shoveler either. The first thing that happened was the Husband telling me to pick up an 80 lb bag and I was like, "Do I look like an ant to you?" He was like "Huh?" and then I said, "I am a 110 lb woman there is no WAY." But then there was the ritualizing opening of them, the shoveling them into the concrete mixer while the husband was doing what HE was doing to make a pad and I was like, "This is PURE HELL." The husband did so much way more than me but I suppose I was slightly helpful. He gave me a shovel and the first thing I said after trying to get concrete into the mixer was, "Do you have something smaller?" I mean a spade would have been awesome but I had a shovel small enough that I could barely control its movement and we, together, made the pad.
Then I came in to like wash the lights and my husband was like "how can you be doing that?" I was like, "IDK maybe I don't overdo things. But I am tired now. Lunch at 1 pm and then I am putting the new toilet seat on because the husband will wait until Tuesday afternoon he is such a procrastinator.
Man though, more concrete to come tomorrow. Color me not impressed. I just picked up a soda bottle and it HURT. Not cool.

How big is it actually and what do you do with them?
Any jewelry you make will be beautiful.
