Hi Julia,

I personally wrote you but I can easily recommend you try the supplement I told you about in my email. I have a special private FB support group for those who order through me. Here’s my other blog with my story on the front page and a link to the ordering page. I would love for you to try it. I believe it may very well help you! Blood sugar regulation is very important for those with Hashimoto’s so this supplement may be helping me partly because of this support. But there are other components in the supplement which help with overall health and wellness and it’s so easy to take – just a simple drink a day! Hope you will try it with me and hopefully you may find the assistance I have found with it. It has been life changing for me after 20 years of debilitating symptoms! Take care! Don’t give up! There is hope!

Reyna – be careful with that med-I was on that for 10 days because i coulddnt take any other thyroid med.
It put me into hyper thyroid-coma & thryoid storm for I thought a week my daughter says it was more like 3 weeks.
While in the hospital they put me on Methimazole
took it for 2 months. Took me off it because I was going Hypo. Now im with nothing for a few weeks (not feeling well) but they will do thyroid scan soon & try again with meds.
Just dont want to see anyone else go thru what i did. My heart was a mess as well
I was doing gluten free before all this. Felt much better but the bread is terribble lol

Jeane, Have you gone gluten free yet? The antibody attack is the main culprit behind the destruction of the thyroid so that part of your thyroid issues need to be addressed by diet as far as the research knows at this point. Have you considered checking into a Functional Medicine doctor? It seems there might be other areas to address besides just the thyroid hormone supplement. But since I don’t know if you are under the care of a physician that addresses these other areas, I am not sure what to say at this point. Come on over to the Facebook support group if you are not already there. We’d love to have you.

Hi Maureen-my name is Mary Anne
I was on the natural thyroid for 10 days. I did get it from my family dr. I’d been to an Endo dr & tried 3 differt meds for thyroid which caused allergic reaction. So i figured lets try the natural thyroid. I dont even recall the name. I still have some memories coming back each day. Comes from being in a throid storm for 2 weeks
Yes Maureen-Drs always watching my thyroid numbers
And i do gluten free diet as well.

mskiba53 (I’m sorry I don’t think you mentioned your name) – Wow – what a terrible thing to go through! Can I ask you a question? Did you have a doctor that was watching your thyroid numbers and how long were you on the Natural thyroid (which one?) before you ended up in the hospital? That is so scary? As far as the calcium – you can get that from other sources such as chicken and beef bone broth, green vegetables and juices, but mostly, making sure you are digesting it is the most crucial thing. You might be interested in getting a consultation with a Functional Medicine doctor to see if they could help better with the diet as well as calming your immune system. Here’s a link to how you can find a Functional Medicine doctor in your area. I sure hope you feel better fast!

Hi mskiba53! Thank you for your comment. I feel for you – I totally know what you are saying with food sensitivities! The only diet that has changed my life has been the GAPS Diet and for many, the SCD Diet is just a good. These diets concentrate on healing the gut – which is almost certainly why we have these sensitivities. If you are interested in looking into this issue, please google SCD Diet and GAPS Diet for this issue. Both diets are high in calcium BUT the real issue is healing the gut enough that these nutrients can once again be absorbed. Here’s a few posts I’ve done on the GAPS Diet. I hope to do some more – they are both really at their base, grain free and sugar free diets which have even more health benefits for the body. Here are the other posts and if possible, you might enjoy my FB page where others come together for support. You can find that on the right side of this page. You only need to “like” it to post. Hope to see you there! And I hope you feel better very soon!
