Something Has Changed

Not too long ago in the recent past, I recall going to be at night around 9:30 or 10:00 and within minutes I would be fast asleep and would not wake up until 8:00 or 8:30 the next morning...  also associated with that was my feeling of constant fatigue that gradually disappeared leaving me with a renewed vigor to exercise which I did but began slowly. 

About this same time, my PSA levels had double and were above the acceptable range and while there was no indication for immediate alarm, I was told I still needed to get myself checked out by a
Urologist.  A day or two later, I mentioned to my Oncologist about day sweats and additional tests were performed on my blood indicating that my Thyroid levels were too high so I was put on medication.

After 5 days of that medication which is really too soon to see any kind of change, my body is in fact making a change...  I am waking up an hour or two earlier than before...  I have even more energy than before which could be attributed to my gradually increasing exercising routine that is now up to 40 minutes on the bike and walking a mile at a speed of 3.0 or 20 minutes a mile...  and, my desire to eat have substantially reduced from that which I was eating, although I am still not eating enough protein, veges, and fruits.


  • Is it my thyroid medicine?
  • Is it my exercising?
  • Is it my cancer treatments?
  • Is it my age?


SOMETHING HAS CHANGED...
