Endocrine System

October 31, 1998

Dear ,

Please unsubscribe me to your group. I really do like learning all you have

to offer, but the amount of information and e-mail is way too much for the

time and energy I have to offer. All of the mail gets sent to everyone, so

there is no filtering out the unnecessary.

If you ever get it resolved to a simple operation, please put me back on your

group list.

My daughter had thyroid surgery for hyperthyroidism and is doing well, so if

anyone wants information on thay path, we're happy to help.

Good luck to you all.

I have heard that female hormone(estrogen, etc.) have an effect on

cholesterol levels. For example, high cholesterol generally being less of a

problem for premenopausal women. Lori B

I really need some help trying to figure out my sons SEVERE endocrine system

issues. I spent some time on the " Stop the Thyroid Madness " site. I'm more

confused than ever. My son clearly has almost all of the issues for thyroid,

insulin, adrenals, cortisol, etc. I haven't slept in 3.5 years since he was born

and I don't know how much more I can take...or he can take. He literally wakes

up every 45minutes/every sleep cycle. We have had NO luck getting blood from

him in the past year...and believe me we have tried just about everything and

every idea that people have sent my way with the exception of putting him under.

We since then have migrated to energy work (not sure if any of you follow/agree

w/ this) but it has been about all that has worked for us. Anyway, according to

this, he has severe issues w/ his hypothalamus plus adrenal and thyroid issues.

He has been on Energentix products for thyroid, adrenals and recently start one

for hypothalamus. All I've read says that saliva is the way to go for testing

but impossible to get from a 3.5 yo. Our DAN! is willing to help w/ blood tests

but we cannot get blood. It seems like Armour is the way to go but if I

understand correctly that is impossible to get w/o blood testing and a script.

Any ideas for this completed exhausted mother?

Hi Jan,

You wrote: You really can't do Armour without the adrenals being supported

anyway, it will just make things worse.

This is really interesting to me. We just did adrenal testing for my dd (age 8)

and don't have the results back yet. She has been on armour thyroid for over a

year. Her DAN! doctor recently doubled her armour thyroid dosage -- which I

phased in over a 10 day period. Since being on the higher dose full time (3

days), she has been all out of whack -- emotional, unable to do school work,

obsessive. After the phase-in, I added molybdenum which the dr. recommended. I

think I should have waited longer between the two. Now I'm not sure which is

the problem. I thought it must be the molybdenum, but after reading your

comment about the Armour, it makes me wonder. How did you (and your daughter)

realize that you can't do Armour without supporting the adrenals? What symptoms

did you have?

I think I need to start over so that I can see what caused this. Only wishing

now that I could get her back to where we were before we started changing the

supplements. We're trying to get ready for chelation and she's getting worse

instead of better.

Thanks for your input.

..... This may be completely out there, but have you considered taking your son

to a sleep clinic? The way you describe him made me think of an episode of

" Mystery Diagnosis " on Discovery Health Channel. There was a little girl who

would go to bed, wake very on schedule, vomit, and then go back to sleep. She,

also, didn't appear to wake up, just sat up, vomited, and went back to sleep,

and she had no recall of the episodes. They finally had her assessed at a sleep

clinic, with video of her episodes. I can't remember for certain, but I think

they found a form of epilepsy causing this. At least they knew what it was and

had a way to treat it.

This may have nothing to do with your son's situation, but just an interesting

note. (We've been looking into sleep disorders in my family lately and finding

sleep apnea where you wouldn't expect it.)

With regard to blood draw, don't know if your child just won't allow it, or

other. My son had blood drawn the first time at age 4. He is still as an adult

a difficult draw because he has very small veins. They use a " butterfly "

needle, which is tiny and works much better on him.

Re Energy medicine, I'm all for it. Works very well here. We've been using

various forms of energy medicine for over 25 years. We are now experimenting

with cold lasers. In this case, it's an " Erchonia " laser with much hope of

possibilities. I'm still looking further for electrodermal testing and others

such as the Ondamed, which a friend told me worked well for her situation. We

also use CranioSacral therapy with much success.

Re the Erchonia, it has settings for brain neurotransmitters including GABA,

which we're getting treated for. I'm hoping this works for anxiety. We're new

at this, as is the practitioner doing it. He said he knows of a practitioner

who is treating autism with the Erchonia, but he doesn't know him or the

details. I'm not advertising this, we're just at the early, experimental stage.

It is non-invasive and kinda fun. We'll see.

Good look with all.
