Guest guest Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Jan, why do you not recommend Dr. nick? That is where Dr. Launius would send me if I followed his advice. (though I am sticking with spurlock for now)Sent from Grace's iPhone Log onto our site and look in Files. In the doctors folder, he is on the Texas Armour Docs List. He does not take any insurance, but can send you to a lab that takes yours. Quite frankly, if your doc is willing to treat you and work with you, that may be a the best place to start. We do not recommend Dr. nick. >> Hi, All,I am so glad that I found you guys! I recently get my annual blood work > results and my TSH is 4.99, (vs 3.1 last year).
