Thanks for all the good wishes. I'm home, exhausted, but feeling pretty
good.

Bottom line is that I have Graves' disease (autoimmune disorder of the
thyroid) and my thyroid output was 15x normal. The huge amount of T3
hormone put my heart into atrial flutter - which is *very bad*. The heart
and anti-thyroid medicines have me pretty stable - I'm not going to be
running any marathonsg, but can handle normal activity. I should be able
to get past this in a couple of months.

That's good news. I have a cat with thyroid problems; all you need is for
someone to pin you down a couple of times a day and force medicine down your
throat and you'll be fine. g
