Why are my freckles visible in summer but disappear in winter?

Funny thing about thyroid problems and dyscalculia: the way TSH is calculated is super confusing to my brain, so I read it as my TSH being high. Turns out it's low, but it has been for long enough, (and far enough out of healthy range) for my endocrinologist to be concerned.

So I have Subclinical Hypothyroidism.

My gut just made a noise like a cat ready to fight. I felt absolutely nothing. Very disconcerting when your body makes loud noises and you have zero accompanying sensation. Like, wth 🥴

Last night’s apparent body heat maintenance requirements for reasonably peaceful slumber:

1. Both feet and left hand completely uncovered
2. Top sheet from ankles to armpits
3. Comforter from just above the knee to the chin
4. Right arm tucked in a comforter sling (not related to body heat but prevention of hyperextending elbow if it falls off the side of the bed while sleeping on back)
