Jumping for Joy

I had an appointment with my endocrinologist today. I have been taking Thyroid medicine for quite a while and I actually thought I may have to take this particular medicine for as long as I live but today I was told there is no reason for me to take anymore since the result of my blood test is still in the normal range even if I stopped taking it four months ago, which is basically a quarter of the annual treatment for it. 

I wasn’t expecting to hear this news today because I actually thought he’d be scolding me for not coming back right away to see him. Few months ago, I have suffered from terrible rashes, which I still don’t know until now what triggered it in particular.  I have never experienced it before. I never had sensitive skin until this year. We were concerned that it might be because of the Thyroid medicine that I am taking at that time so I stopped taking it as prescribed by my doctor. I am supposed to see him again after seeing a dermatologist but life happed. I got a job opportunity and I have been busy improving my businesses strategy and marketing. It’s a busy time of the year and I have all the reasons not to go. Oooops! Not really. Haha...  I should have called earlier to make an appointment but I didn’t. So few days ago I did call and was able to get in today because I was a wondering myself how my thyroid condition is. So thankful for my hubby and a few friends who encouraged me to go see my doctor and find out. Yeah, that’s how terrible I am when it comes to taking care of my own health. 

I just want to share a little bit about me. The struggles, imperfections and trials, which are all part of life. I used to feel uncomfortable sharing things like this because at the back of my mind, who’s going to be interested in reading my story? But stories like this makes us human. The reality is, not every things is going to look beautiful. And even though things are not always pretty, it is comforting to know the truth that God is good and He is sovereign over every little details of our lives. It feels so good to know that, isn’t it?
