Guest guest Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Thyroid issues are what got me into this mess in the firstplace. 30 years since mine was treated with radioactive I 131 .......leading to 23 year of almost continual treatment for " so called " M I issues like anxiety in the first instance .......thence depression as my iatrogenic illness developed. Psych drugs CAUSE mental illness > > > Thank you for this information.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Thyroid issues is what sent me down this road also. I could name several others too. Endocrinology is the other medical specialty that I know of for certain that is as flawed as psychiatry. It makes me suspect the other specialties are just as flawed and that worries me a great deal. I am currently being tested for pulmonary hypertension. I am to see a cardiologist Monday for the first time. I'm more worried about what drugs he will try to put me on than I am about whether or not I have the disease. > > > > > > Thank you for this information.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 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 > > > > > > > > > Thank you for this information.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 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) J > > > > > > > > > > > > Thank you for this information.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 " he could see I was giving a reasoned refusal ........ " You have to give a 'reasoned refusal' for them to offer nutritive options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
