Re: Thot 4 the Day.../thyroid

" ...

We must be clones...you've described my health (or non-health)

in detail. Have you ever had your thyroid checked? "

Suzanne; hmm.

I have had my thyroid hormones and TSH checked numerous times. They

have always fallen in the normal range. I did have one physician who

based on my symptoms and very low body temperature did prescribe

thyroid hormone medication, and I took it for several years. My body

temperature never came up to normal even though my cold intolerance

improved.

" including a thyroid antiglobulin and thyroid peroxidase? "

Nope never had these checked. I will request them next time blood

work comes up. Thanks.

Three or four years ago I started on DHEA and natural progesterone

supplements. Low DHEA can cause insensitivity to the thyroid hormones

and cause the symptoms of low thyroid even when the thyroid hormone

levels are normal. I found that these two hormones improved both my

cold sensitivity and body temperature. The DHEA has helped slightly

with the fibromyalgia, and has helped with my immunity to infection

and energy level much more than the thyroid did. DHEA is a precursor

steroid hormone and seems to be suppressed by chronic stress.

I find that avoiding glutton and whey, exercise, and weight

management help the most with the fibromyalgia.

My skin condition is a rash on my face and eyelids, which peels, and

when it is bad will bleed and get quite painful. The dermatologists

have prescribed topical steroids and say it is autoimmune. But I find

that avoiding glutton and using B6, lithium, and aloe topically will

control the condition quite well. It never goes away altogether and

will flair up if I eat bread or pasta.

" We must be clones... "

This group is truly amazing!

As a glimpse of that light Edith promises at the end of the tunnel, I

have had very few migraines since starting with this group. Yey!
