Hyperthyroidism

Diagnosed 2004 but did not tell anyone in the family for over six months.
Told them I had a lung infection should have told them about the condition sooner.
Kept condition secret from my daughter but should have been honest with her.

People think that all I have is a lung infection and just need a asthma pump to sort me out but I have a condition that needs to be monitored often and only drugs keep it under control. It is now affecting other parts of my body and my mental health is started to be effected.

I lie to people that 'I'm fine but inside I want to scream at them
