Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 I assume you are a grown up therefor your diet is your choice. Certainly some foods are better for us and some worse. But we all make choices about what to eat and when and how much. So I leave it to you to yell at yourself if you feel such a thing is warrented. Okay dietary issues aside. I'm a bit worried about dropping your thyroid med in half without a blood test to determine just what numbers you are dealing with. Thus I am not shocked your symptoms are all over the place. Sometimes messages get lost or doctors go on vacation or are off due to illness. Try calling them again to get your blood draw and thyroid numbers. Finally - as a gentleman here on the list frequently brings up - thyroid issues are often linked with adrenal fatigue - so you might want to investigate that some.

I was started out on 3mg ldn. The Dr. is new at this also. I would have thought I was going crazy untill I found you all. Anyway with symtoms I droped to 1.5. About a aweek after I had return to Dr. She said go back to 3mg. I began to have what I thought was a change in thyroid. Drop in temp. haid loss more anxiety,more fatigue..... So I stayed at the 3mg and was on 30am and 30 pm of Armour. So I called Dr. and she never called me back about Thyroid blood draw. So I dropped my armour down to just the 30 am. I really feel like I'm bouncing around with symtoms. AND NO I'M NOT DOING WELL WITH DIET. Go ahead and yell! I do see Dr on the25th and maybe the last time. I have lost income an ins as of this month. I'm applying for disabilty. Thank You ------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 With thyroid and cfs it is always good to stay on 1.5 mg and to see that it Works for you only later you can raise. People with hashimoto might be able to lower the hormones.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 Yes. And, if candida is present, it is going to interfere with the LDN working and will also cause symptoms to be strange. Stay on 1.5mg for a while, give yourself time to even out and see what's happening. Do call your doctor again about the blood draw as Jaxi says it's really up to us to stay on the relationship with our doctors, they are way overworked and messages get lost. I too am concerned about your cutting thyroid meds in half without numbers. It's important you get the blood draw this month so call your doctor and stay on it, make sure the office knows you have a deadline for draw and interpretation. wishing you well. -- >With thyroid and cfs it is always good to stay on 1.5 mg and to see that >it Works for you only later you can raise. >People with hashimoto might be able to lower the hormones. >Candida has always to be treated ~~~ There is no way to peace; peace is the way ~~~~ --A.J.
