Still sick...

Kind of a broken record, huh? I'm sick a lot. I don't think I've had a decent immune system since before my cancer diagnosis, and that was over 11 years ago. Speaking of which, I see my endocrinologist tomorrow. Endocrine=glands, of course. Since my cancer was in my thyroid gland, I don't see an oncologist (cancer specialist), I see someone who is much more familiar with the thyroid and how it and its hormones affect the body. Trust me on this. I've seen tons and tons of doctors over the last 11+, and if you or someone you know is ever diagnosed with an endocrine system cancer, see an endocrinologist!! The oncologists I've seen didn't know squat about my kind of cancer.
Anyway, I'll find out tomorrow how all my blood levels are and that includes a blood test that can indicate if the cancer is coming back. I don't expect it to show anything, but it's good to check, of course.
Since I still have my cold, I'm going to bed earlier than I usually do. I'm usually a total night owl, as many of you know. ::grin:: But I need some extra rest, and I need to be up in time for my appointment tomorrow.
I made myself a new LJ icon, 'cause it was my turn. ::grin:: Been busy making them for other people lately. Which I love doing, but it was my turn. LOL Brian Kinney. From the new season 3 ad. He looks so sad and alone, doesn't he? None of his so-called friends really understand him, poor baby. A lot of people still seem to think he's an insensitive, selfish asshole, but it just isn't true. Want recs for good Brian and QAF stories? I work with 2 of the best QAF writers out there.

Well, I'd better head to bed. More tomorrow.

And no, I haven't gone to bed yet. I'm pathetic.
