The relief

Consulted from the endocrinologist today at Ipoh Specialist Hospital. Ok, blood test turned up to be ok, everything is normal. Then the doctor, Dr. Ong suspected that I got thyroiditis (inflammation of thyroid gland) because hyperthyroidism causes swelling of gland but not the pain. Since it was subsided from the previous treatment, so this swelling and pain most possibly is due to thyroiditis. Then Dr. Ong said that I maybe prone to this as a result of my genetic composition because I already had this last time plus this time, 2 times. So, means I have the potential to get it again in another few months later...OH GOSH!!! And, thyroiditis is not related to hyperthyroidism that I had now...ok, genetic composition... >.<> that's why I am thin!!! (Yeah!)

At least I know that my thyroid hormones are functioning well, and it is important to maintain (craps), but I still need to eat medicine to maintain it...=.=

Now? 6 days of medication with prednisolone (steroid) to reduce inflammation... And please, thyroiditis, please don't mess with me like that... ok, "blame" my own genetic composition...
