Guest guest Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 Preston was not tested for antibodies, so I don't know if he is Hashi's or not. I wasn't tested for antibodies either. Does it really matter? How is the treatment different? I guess the RT3 will be helpful too. I guess I had better ask the doc to do these at his next draw. It's interesting how his allergies have become worse, the heavier he gets. Currently he weighs a couple of pounds more than I do. And it seems that he is sensitive to everything and therefore I do not like to give him too many supplements. He has an over-sensitive gag reflex too, and he won't swallow pills without a major fight. Chriss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 lots of reasons, one could be congenital adrenal hyperplasia. If you are hypoadrenal, hypothyroid when pregnant, you will " borrow " adrenal hormones from the baby. Baby is born with stressed adrenals and the cycle continues.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 If he is hypothyroid then he is hypo. He should be treated based on symptoms!! I don't think it matters what kind of hypo he is. Autoimmune is adrenal, easy to treat. Docs just don't know this. Gracia > Preston was not tested for antibodies, so I don't know if he is Hashi's or > not. > I wasn't tested for antibodies either.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 took me a while to get back to this post! yes I do---well if you look at lists of hypoadrenal symptoms, autoimmune diseases are on there. Seems to be the interplay between thyroid and adrenal hormones. Why is autoimmune disease epidemic? Poor diet, endocrine disrupters, toxins like mercury, vaccines?
