Me either. Until several posts on this group. My son had some problems that

may have been related to his thyroid, according to some of the stuff I've read.

He would pass out if he waited too long between meals (like more than 6 hours),

he could not gain weight, he ate voraciously, he had migraines & mood swings.

Was his thyroid ever brought up as a possible problem by his doctors? No. Did

we ask what might cause these problems? Yes. We were told...nothing. They

tested him for diabetes, did an EEG, said he was fine and should try to eat 6

times a day because he had a high metabolism. Quacks.

Wow, I wish my doctor would have done that. I got a sack of Lipitor samples.

I will never see that doctor again. did you have to insist upon that natural

approach?

Jim

Not only have I had decades of being treated for a MI that they now

accept I don't have-

therefor

I've decades of not receiving proper treatment for endochrine

problems which they simply ignored.

Catching up with me now .........very high blood pressure,

chlorestrol, & Triglycerides & just to say I was at the

cardiologist/lipid clinic two days ago.

They wrote me up for Omacor eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), Benecol

drinks and if needs be Vit B3 (nicitinic acid)

who's keeping away from the Statins, Beta Blockers & ACE Inhibitors

That's FANTASTIC!! Aside from the spooky part. An actual real doctor right

there in the hospital. I think it shows that more and more are starting to

wake up. I had to look up your treatments but when I realized what they were

I knew you had got hold of someone that actually knows their stuff.

I'm very happy for you

I had an experience with a dentist years back when I refused any more metal

in my mouth (mercury amalgamate) he would not see me anymore and also

refused my sister! I wanted a new non-mercury cement, the guy went nuts!

Jim

Jim it was a really odd experience.

I've been having real blood pressure issues ...like 190/120 & was

sent off by my GP to the very hospital in Belfast where my journey

began 30 + years ago.

Same building, same ward........ the clinic was right there where I

was given the radio active iodine.

Spooky

The first doctor, nice man from India, I thought he'd be ok for

alternative treatment ..........but I got him wrong and he was

writing me ace inhibitors etc etc.

I refused actually I psahionately refused & I opened up to him about

my friend on W & R Group.

He then left the room & brought in Prof. .......he could see

I was giving a reasoned refusal ........and to my surprise revealed

that all of his research papers were on nuitrients vits minerals etc

etc.

So Prof moved me unto his personal list & wrote me up the

protocol.

I mentioned to crusaders list that my endochronologist is testing

alpha lipoic acid for the relief of neuropathic pain in diabetees.

(wonereing if it helps in carpal tunnel ....will look into it)
