Could be, I guess; but I don't have that excuse. My hypo was

accidentally discovered in a routine exam probably within weeks of

beginning and I was put on Synthroid and never have had any symptoms. I

swear sometimes I'm ashamed to even be here, when I hear someone's tale

of woe with a quality of life that is pure hell. Especially when I

don't have the slightest idea of how to help them. But I guess

sometimes it's worse: When someone is spending precious resources and

time on a quack product that some artist is using to get rich on the

misery of others; and I don't know how to communicate that information

to them in a believable manner.

Most times I feel fine, but last night I got a bit of food poisoning or

maybe stomach virus and today I can hardly sit in a chair. Thank God

for preparation H! [ggg] At least no one's called me a " sore head " yet

today...

As for level headedness I think that honor would have to go to Chuck.

And he's also a PhD research scientist, so he can keep us straight on

the chemistry and credible research. It does help to realize he has a

unique sense of humor if you ever hear him say something that sounds

" off the wall " ... [iMHO]

Glad you and Sue kissed and made up! [ggg]

A " BIT " of stubborn-ness??? That's like when the scientist estimate the

That's correct. No computers, no game boys, and no t.v. , so take you

Logically there are two types of doses under discussion in my

statement: One is the NORMAL dose and the other is and OVERDOSE in my

post. To assert that " every hormone causes side effects " is to include

the NORMAL dose as well as the OVERDOSE. That statement is inaccurate,

and it is to that statement that I replied.

Thank you, Sue,

I knew you'd come around -- but it's NOT " balanced " pH, it's pH (in your

body) as near to 7.365 as you can get it. Then, wonderously, thank to

Providence, you'll start to simply " get better. "

Read a bit more, and you'll come across the requirement of 7.365 for body

pH. Our water engineers think enough about this that they put fresh water in

the pipes at a pH of about 7.3.

Hey Nancie...perhaps you should let sleeping dogs lie. 

Take things as literally as you want...especially since you are a medical

provider...but you should know in that particular instance, you were mistaken.

That's all i was pointing out.  Sometimes when one is attempting to make a point

they will use fictional examples to illustrate that point.  If you take these

fictional examples too literally and formulate an opinion on the example as if

it were truth you would be  mistaken...but you are a medical provider so you

probably know that.

Mathew-

The point is that all hormones, supplements and drugs have side effects

whether you experience a " positive side effect or not. You can still achieve

a positive outcome and still get a benign side effect. That is a fact.

Sue, i am just now getting through my missed emails here and appreciate your

response to this question as it is very informative.

It is frustrating that our doctor's first solution is to put us on

antidepressants.  It makes me wonder how many people out there are actually not

being treated for what is really ailing them.

Thanks for the heads up but I don't really care anymore about the side effect

convo. 

FYI...I understand your explanation but that was not my point in the first

place.

Just have to say this as it appears any topic flies on this list, but since when

is calling someone a " jerk " the most nasty thing in the world?  From some of the

other remarks i have seen about that you would think that I cussed Sue out!!! 

I'll be sure not to say the " J " word anymore-wow!!!!  Thanks for putting me in

my place gang!!!!

  Be sure to see my smiley face so you know that I am joking.

There is a very very simple neurotransmitter test which can be ordered by a

doctor to test your brain chemistry and often " treated " with amino acids.

I have no idea why doctors and especially psychiatrists are not ordering

this test except that doctors do in many ways, support the drug companies

and vice versa.

I suspect human health would advance markedly if every human were
