Guest guest Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Hi Gael, I have found that the saliva tests for Thyroid (free's and TSH) are very much in synch with my bloodwork. Maybe you can check you saliva?

My thyroid tests were similar to yours and he prescribed armour to me and I have jsut started iodine drops. Also am guessing that you first need to optimize your estrogen - maybe , for you, you are not getting enough? just a guess. my favorite books published on this topic ALL say you need to first get your estrogen levels up to where you have no sign of Est deficiency. hope this helps......Christa Hi, and thank you for responding to my question. I'm not certain if I have low estrogen, or if some of the symptoms might not be related to low thyroid, even though I also have some symptoms of HYPERthyroid. It's all so confusing to me, and with the brain fog I have been under, it all seems almost too daunting. I am trying to put together little bits and pieces, baby steps, to see what improvement I can get. Thanks again, I appreciate any word! Gael See what's new at AOL.com and Make AOL Your Homepage.
