(OT) Was: Re: Chromium and thyroid - , anyone?

[Guest guest]

Does anyone know of a good practitioner who can help me with this type of

problem, please?

An excellent acupuncturist suspected pituitary problems decades ago, hypothyroid

for about 15 years, suspect adrenal exhaustion but NHS tests say it's OK, also

diabetes. Now getting sugar in my urine, high blood sugar. despite being on

maximum dose of 2 meds. (By the way, metformin, widely used in diabetes is I

think an artificial form of the traditional remedy, which I think was

artemisia.)
