Fourth time lucky?

Hey all! So it's been a while since I posted (seems like I've been saying that pretty much every post!) but I've been pretty damn busy. Been working hard at uni and freelancing for my charity. Plus, I've actually been having something which resembles A LIFE!!! Now don't get too excited there folks, it's nothing to write home about (though I guess I found it worthy enough for blog writing) but it's a hell of a lot better than what I had before.
Basically in the last few months I've been really feeling better energy wise. The fact that I've lost over 20kgs might have something to do with it but I also think it's thanks to the correct medication dosage I'm now on. If you remember the doc started me on cortisol lowering meds and after surgeries 2 and 3 messed up my pituitary I've also been replacing a whole host of other hormones. Although it's a pain having to take so many pills, it's totally worth it. I'm able to walk an average of one hour every day, I'm not sweating as much and my mood has been pretty stable. All in all, I've been feeling pretty awesome.
