Tidbit for you re the thyroid. A lot of hypoT post nail problems. One in particular is that we tend to lose those half moons (except on thumbs) on our digits.
Also, I used to be unable to sleep. Don't know if that was thyroid related or perimenopausal.
For the last 1/2 year I sometimes wake about 3a w garbage thoughts. Doc that monitors me for thyroid queries me about my sleep patterns in effort to monitor me for signs of depression.
Calcium and magnesium (and vit D) before bed is good for sleep.

Andy, thanks for doing the links to my old threads. I only recently went back to my first entry on this thread and was pleased by what you'd done for me.

I'm remembering something I read somewhere in which it says that the spouse remembers everything we say. I can remember how I went from a blabbering wife to one who couldn't think of a thing to say. Then I read somewhere that if your spouse likes to laugh then do/say things that will cause them to smile. H always enjoyed my dry humor so I'm trying to bring that back plus respond in humorous ways to some of the stuff he says.
When you've been married going on 29 years it's hard to go back to the beginning and talk about the stuff you talked about in the beginning. I find us going there and although the visits are short it's good.
