Rough week indeed. Keep pushing
I have Hashimoto’s, which is a form of hypothyroidism, and between medication and diet, it doesn’t affect my daily life much. You will have to be careful about weight gain, but if you’ve suddenly put on a little weight, the meds help get you back to your normal weight.
The vaccine side effects suck, but just remind yourself that it should pass in a few days and is better than normal.
Can you ask your roommates for some time until you can find a new place?
Lastly, is there anything you can do to save your job, assuming you want to. With everything going on, including your health, maybe you can talk to your manager or HR about a leave or a reasonable accommodation?
The armour shouldn’t cause any weight gain. Usually that’s the hypo itself, and the meds will help with weight loss. If you lose too much on armour, then I’d check in with the doctor. On the LOA, while they can term after it’s up, more common is a performance improvement plan upon return to see if your performance bounces back.

I’m having hypothyroidism but as long as you take the meds on time everyday, it doesn’t really affect my daily life at all, except you need to pay more attention to your weight management because it’ll be easier to gain weight:) I hope your week eventually gets better!

I am getting blood work done tomorrow to check my thyroid and have my second Covid shot next Tuesday....why do you need to move out? And are you really on the verge of getting term’d at work or just anxious?

good luck tomorrow! do you suspect hypo? roommates decided due to “roommates PTSD about prior roommates/nothing i did”, that i need to go since “they’re not ready for a new roommate”. paying the price for others wrong doings and roommates mental issues
