If not I guess I could whittle a stopper out of wood or some other material for this first one.<br /><br />Hi Gigi, thanks, apparently the thyroid is a common problem and test should be given routinely.<br /><br />Hi Joanne, thanks, so glad you got your's worked out. Roly Poly has some drying to do and then some friends to be added. But looking forward to these.<br /><br />Hi Michele, thanks, I will have to get some corks and see how they do, this one will have to be the way he is since he is already drying but I guess I could sand a little in there when green, we shall see. Hard to manipulate without the potential for breaking the ears off now.<br /><br />Hi Elephant's Child, thanks, yes the medication can only be increased in small increments due to potential muscle damage to the heart. Good luck with your trip. I know what you mean easy to gain, hard to lose, oh well, could be worse I guess.<br /><br />Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-80074639711584513692012-12-14T15:58:21.310-05:002012-12-14T15:58:21.310-05:00I love your pleasantly plump bunny.
And I hear yo...I love your pleasantly plump bunny.<br /><br />And I hear you on the thyroid issues. I was gaining and gaining and gaining. I look a little like the Michelin woman at the moment. My low thyroid issues were diagnosed about six months ago and we are still experimenting trying to get the medication right.

I had the same...Maybe he's sitting on his tail.<br />I had the same thyroid problem except it didn't escalate to your level. I gained forty pounds. I complained to every doctor. They said I was getting old, I'd quit smoking, bla bla bla. Finally the gastroenterologist said thyroid problems come with weight gain, I'll throw in a thyroid test with your anemia test. He sent the results to my primary care, who said "Oh, your thyroid has crapped out." I was angry! Then, it took me a year and a half of hard dieting and working out to lose it again. Ever since I've made sure I understand everything going on. Oh, and I gave my thyroid management over to an endochrinologist who works with me to keep my thyroid stable and weight under control. Yea I could get it taken care of. Boo that half a dozen doctors, including my primary, did not recognize weight gain as a symptom!<br />Keep up the good bunny work. I'm real excited about Roly Poly's trip through the kiln.Joanne Noragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834682329952369721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-8165503714238503442012-12-14T13:02:11.619-05:002012-12-14T13:02:11.619-05:00My internist usually orders a thyroid test when I ...My internist usually orders a thyroid test when I go in for my lab work every year.

The doctor told me he was stumped so I suggested he tested my thyroid, of course it was high. I should have sent him a bill!

Ha.<br /><br />Hi Suzi, thanks, oh I'll have to take a trip to my supplier and see what they have in the way of corks. I always do things in the reverse order of how they should be done but that's how I learn.<br /><br />I may have to go to the library and check out some children't books. I think I can make some smaller bunnies without the bank mechanism. I was also thinking of ways to embellish him, coats, bow tie, texture, it's unlimited.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-86212802872154774892012-12-14T08:08:14.856-05:002012-12-14T08:08:14.856-05:00He is a plump lovable fellow.
