My mother went through the shrinkage thing with meds for her thyroid many years ago. Also, she had congestive heart failure 20 yrs ago, before the thyroid issues. I was so scared for her during those times, but we have made it well beyond those years now. You will too. Hang in there. December will be here before you know it.
