I have Hashimoto's Thyroid, auto-immune disease. I was diagnosed in Feb of 2012. I had been diagnosed with Grave's thyroid in 2004. Man it has been a bumpy road. I had problems with chronic pain (fms, migraines) and chronic fatigue for years and took heavy duty pain pills w/o relief. Learned on my own about thyroid and how it controls the body systems. So when thyroid isn't working right it wrecks havoc on other body systems. The TSH is an outdated standard of healthcare and must not be used alone when deciding how to treat the patient. The Dr either listens to you( I don't trust any endocronologist after seeing 3 in 4 years) or you find another one. My Dr and I work together to find right dose of hormone replacement( I take Tirosint, it's the pure hormone) based on my symptoms. Although I will ask for a TSH to be ran to confirm that I know I am too hypo or in some cases hyperthyroid. Don't let a Dr say you are in normal lab range, and dismiss your symptoms. TSH of 1-1.5 is optimal if your have hypothyroid. Also have Hashi's I also have adrenal problems. But I eat as clean as possible and that makes a huge difference in how I feel. Avoiding junk, white starch, refined sugars, gluten and dairy. The fibro, chronic pain and chronic fatigue are gone. Migraines are gone 90% due to treating my thyroid correctly and eating clean. Read about the thyroid and demand the right care.

Thank you Nicole, I will read your posts. And, Thank You to Tara for your info. I have to get to the primary doctor and have them order a raft of blood work which I hate to go through anymore. But, then maybe we can find out how the body is doing and it will help the alternative doctor know we are on the right track too.
On a good note, I am starting to sleep better after the new doctor added Kavinace which is a neurotransmitter to my supplements. What a relief to be able to have rest for my poor brain. The Zyto testing showed I needed that product. It is a wonderful tool.

Great posts Nicole about your journey with Lyme. I tried to comment but it would not post them for some reason.

There are two books worth reading: The Autoimmune Solution by Amy Meyers, MD, and The Wahls Protocol by Terry Wahls. Both available from Amazon. I think you can get a free excerpt download on Kindle. |

I no longer have to use a wheelchair when I go to smaller stores. The Super Wal-mart type stores I use the motorized cart.
I can breath outside now without the mask! I do have to avoid perfume and smoke and other toxic chemical places still. But, at least I can enjoy the outdoors again and go on walks with my DH.
All thanks to natural alternative medicine.

Update!
I started with a new functional medicine doctor Dec of 2017. He has been making great progress in my recovery.
Parasites - VRM 1, VRM 2, VRM 3, VRM 4 I take one drop of one bottle a day in the a.m. I have gained back 13 pounds since Feb. 2019.
Diabetes is gone. yay!
Thyroid stays in the normal range. Yay!
Kidney's are doing well. No pain. Yay!
I will be starting on a homeopathic Lyme protocol that a physician in GA developed after she got Lyme and no RX or other protocol would touch it. She was able to isolate each bacteria and make a remedy to address and kill each one.
So, I'll post once I start and how it goes. Please keep me in your prayers. Thanks!

Hello Judith, I saw a holistic doctor in Lake Mary and Altamonte Springs and their protocols put my blood sugar back to how it had been since childhood. I still have a blood sugar issue but no more type 2 diabetes.
