Guest guest Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Thanks, I hope so too... It's what I dream of every single day! I must have had a throat infection abuot 8 years ago, that's when my tonsils got these cavities in them, and I started removing those white lumps from them (the bad smelling ones) - A specialist told me I need to " remove " (fix with lazer) my tonsils. Cause they looks very bad, he says. He also said that 90% of all people who remove their bad tonsils feel 100% healthy again after this. Some even have Hypo symptoms which go away after they fix their tonsils. My tonsils can't heal, they are messed up for life. I better fix them ASAP. Oh yeah, I had an infection in my tonsils last year, got the flu, and almost died from this! I had the highest possible fever before you die. It was SOOO scary! I was sure this is it. This happened right after an idiot doctor removed my T3-med. I have taken Synthetic T4 every single day sinec May 1997. But I've never been on such a low dose as I am today: 50 mcg. It's a new record since 1997! Let's hope this works...!!! Got my FT3 today! No rT3. It's due for release tomorrow. Anyway, my FT3 was 6.4, which is an increase from November 9th when I did my last bloodwork; 5.9. So, if rT3 has gone down, things are looking better. If rT3 has gone up, well, then it doesn't matter if FT3 is going up as well. I look forward to do the ratio. > > >Yeah, we're not made to wake up after noon. It's time to grow up, huh. I am 31. But living a life with Hypothyroidism doesn't exactly promote growth in all areas like it should be either, so.. > >Thanks buddy! Appreciate it! > > Hopefully you will get your body awake enough to have a life soon > > > >PS! What do you think about my bad tonsils? They can play an important part in my overall health, don't you think? I need to get them removed - But I, and as well as my specialist, feel that I should get better from Hypo before I remove them! To get stronger, so to say. > > No experience of their effect. > > I know that tonsil removal has been blamed for triggering thyroid > issues. > > I also know that when people get thyroid and adrenal support right > that they become less susceptible to infections etc so they may heal > as a result of sorting the rest of it. > > I would leave out your synthetic T4 today, I am wondering if you are > having some reaction to it (or it's fillers) . > > Nick > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 CHF? I've mentioned it before. In the past 2 1/2 years (as long as I've felt stressed) I've gotten a weird sensation in my chest. Especially if I do physical exercise (like having sex is a good example), my chest feels weird. Like it's hard to breathe. Like something is holding back in there, especially near the " top " of the lungs. Now, I've also fels, every single morning (and more and more lately, all thru the day!) that something is vibrating/tickling in my lungs when I take my first deep breaths in the morning. Theory: Can this be actually rT3, ever since early 2007 (and who knows, maybe earlier than that, too!) raising T4 thus stopping T3 from working in my cells? OR do the FT3 level have to go down visually in the blood before we can say this is rT3 pushing it down? How does that work? Anyway. I am worried about CHF, fluid retention and stuff like that. My legs are NOT retaining water. My thighs are retaining something (mucus? fat? water?) as well as my tummy, my whole upper body except my arms, and my face is getting fatter too. BTW, as for HC: Can HC give a person CHF? While on 20 mg? I am just a little worried, becuase I took the first walk outside today, and just came home now. I was out for 10 minutes, and it became a little harder breathing towards the end of the walk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Yeah, so there are warning signs. However, looking back at my teens, from 1991 to 1997 (when I finally got T4-meds and lost all my excess weight) I remember being severely bloated, all over my body. I got more and more problems with tachycardia. And one evening (this was the final blow that made my mother and father really start the hunt for a diagnose) - I ate a full sized restaurant pizza all by myself (that's how big my bell was), with a huge bottle of pop. After finishing the meal, I felt something happened in my heart (and it did, too) and boom, I got tachycardia. It lasted for almost 2 hours (!!!) and it was, up til then in my life, the worst experience, ever! I'm just thinking... I could've been close to CHF back then! For real. I just hope I will avoid it now! I was just thinking about rT3 and... If I've had Adrenal Fatigue for 2 1/2 years, I might very well have had rT3 issues this long too. If taking Synthetic T4 already is bad (we know it ain't the best med out there), then rT3 could've blocked my T3 and started fluid retention in my lungs, slow, over these 2 1/2 years... Does that make any sense? Also, can somebody tell me how rT3 works again? Does a growing rT3 lower the FT3 in the blood, OR block T3 from entering the cells? Or both? > > This sounds liek just hypothyroid.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Oh yeah, my specialist wants me to go slow on the T3 dosing cause 1.) My tachycardia since I was 13 years og age, and 2.) The case of Atrial Fibrillation I got in January 2008. That's why I started with 1/2 grain ERFA, not 1 full grain. Yesterday, on the phone consultation, she told me that she believes more and more that it Can be an rT3-issue within me. So, how many percent of the rT3-patients stay rT3-free after removing rT3, and doing the T3/HC treatment, before they start with dessicated? What are the chances that rT3 comes back? I know staying on dessicated prevents AF happening. And Synthetic T4/T3 allows AF to appear. (Like it did with me. I _did_ undergo an episode with INSANE stress, so that explains why I got AF in the first place.. Which again gave me rT3-problems!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 I believe you more than anyone else I ever talked to. You know a little too much about that subject. rT3 or not: Is it normal to get headaches/strange and bad sensations in the head when starting/switching to dessicated? Could be an electrolyte imbalance. It sucks to take a blood sample, cause the electrolytes change from minute to minute, and a sample takes like a week to get analyzed. rT3-result tomorrow. > > MOst likely that was indigestion!
