Laura, 78/365

Can you see it? The enlarged thyroid gland in my neck? Yeah...I couldn't either.

So here's the story: I went into the doctors office to check my blood pressure because I had a rapid pulse keeping me awake at night. I thought it was blood pressure or too much coffee, but I walked out with new knowledge that my thyroid was causing heart irregularities. In a strange twist, I have hyperthyroidism, or Graves Disease.

I'm not entirely sure what this means yet, in the long term sense, but its just my luck to be the only human alive with Graves Disease who hasn't lost oodles of weight. Now I have a fat ass, and a fat goiter. I mean seriously, I'll take the enlarged thyroid if it means I get a smaller ass! (I'm just kidding...I'm taking this all very seriously...sort of...)
