Dear Frens, I have learned so much about my own health and using alternative remedies and sources, and I am very grateful to you for that.
I turn to you for help and guidance for a friend with Hashimoto hypothyroidism. She was not helped with synthetic drugs, but initially found improvement with Armour Thyroid (desiccated pig thyroid). She's been on the lowest dose for 3 years and her symptoms are worsening, yet no doctor will prescribe a higher dose to see if it will help. Are there alternative sources to which she can turn to find assistance? She lives in the Columbus Ohio area. TY
Sweetheart, stop pushing big pharma's and the Rockefeller medicine's narrative.
The TSH is NOT a measure of thyroid function. The number don't have a damn thing to do with how the thyroid works. It measures the action of the pituitary gland. Your false narrative is what is keeping people undertreated for some phony made up numbers that do not purport what they claim to. It keeps the money rolling into medical profession because they convinced you that you need to do dozens of things and take multiple tests to prove to YOU that you are OK, when you are not! If you were, you would NOT need to keep testing yourself every 6 to 8 weeks!!!! Who in their right mind does something so stupid? Yet, here you are, still following and pushing their bullshit.
How the hell do you think doctor's diagnosed an underactive thyroid before these stupid tests? By Symptoms! They did not need a "test" to show that thigs were not right.
No need to be so butthurt over someone else’s experience. Why not combine testing with symptoms to establish a TSH/ Free T3 baseline when all symptoms go away …
What is your issue? TSH is the measure of thyroid function, at least from a grand overview. You're so off base about this I don't even know what to say.
My "false narrative"?? What, you mean, my LIFE EXPERIENCE?? My TSH was high for years, and now that I've found a way to heal myself it's lower than it's ever been before. Please explain what is "false" about that?
Before these tests doctors didn't know what an under-active thyroid WAS. Only that people may have felt tired but probably chocked it up to "hysteria" or "female malaise" or something. We still don't know the full extent to what the thyroid does and controls in the body.
My gosh you really got a bee in your bonnet about this. Sorry that my life experience offends you so much. You're more than welcome to ignore me and move on with your life. Take care "sweetheart."
