thyroid &/or adrenal support, questions

[Guest guest]

I thought my ds was having symptoms of hypothyroidism. One of my

main concerns was his temperature. His temperature readings range

from 95.1(bordering close to hypothermia)-96.9. He has some other

symptoms like dry skin, tiredness, joint pain, weight gain. His

ped. tested his THS, T4, CBC, strep, and something that marks

inflamation. They came back normal. TSH 1.43, T4 8.3. When asked,

the ped explained the low body temp to be from inactivity. I don't

buy that. My dh asked for a second opinion so the ped is going to

refer us to an endocrinologist. If it turns out not to by a thyroid

problem should we consider adrenal support or thyroid support

supplements? Something is obviously (to me & dh anyway) going on

with ds. TIA

I forgot an important question here. If we should be giving a

specific supplement/s what would those be?

Mercury toxicity affects the thyroid. Andy Cutler has said before that they

need to check T3 & T4.

Hello , I think it is a very big deal your son body temp.

is so low---I am just a mom.

The most importany supplements would be Kelp- contains iodine the

basic substance of the thyroid hormone

L- Tyrosine - low levels have been assocatated with hypothyroidsm

Mult- glandular - supplement for the endocrine, hormonal, and

enzymes systems.

raw thyroid glandular - prescribed by physician- best kind called

Armour

vitamine B complex - improve cellular oxygenation and energy and

are needed for proper digestion, immune function, red blood cell

formation, and thyroid function.

EFA essential Fatty Acids- necessary for proper function

Iron, Selenium, vit A, vit C, vit E and zinc.

All from my favorite book Presription for Nutritional Healing 3 rd

edition by Balch and Balch $23

I know of one paper that might help- its really long - it's A

Comprehensive Guide to Mastering Autism by Willis S Langford this

man sells Mantech products and has his own group at that is

where you will have to go if you want his paper group

Ann,

Thank you for your reply. My ds already takes Selenium, A, C,

E, and flax seed oil. We tried b's and zinc but removed them due to

hyperness. I'll look into the kelp, L-tyrosine, and multi

glandular. Thank you for the suggestions. As for the Armour I

don't think I'll be getting that untill we find a different doctor.

We are definately looking. I appreciate your 2 Cents
