What You Must Know About Your Thyroid Comments

Comments

During a physical or yearly exam it's important for physicians to feel the thyroid for lumps. These also tend to run in families for some reason. Usually the process is ultrasound. Sometimes a fine needle biopsy is needed. Depending on the results of that a thyroidectomy may be required. Bottom line, during a routine visit to either a primary or gyn or other, ask to have thyroid checked -- if he/she doesn't already -- for signs of growths.

I think the best advice is to make a plan with your health provider. Personally , I'm not a health care professional so I rely on my doctor to help me make the best decisions. I was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism last year and it's been quite the journey so far!

I took synthroid for 35 years. I changed to an integrative physician and she looked at both my T3 and T4 ...she changed me to Armour thyroid and feel better ....my normal temp went up to 98.6 ...it was always a degree lower. I have more energy and my fingernails are not so dry.

I've been taking Synthroid for about 17 years now. Is there anyway to repair my thryroid, so I wouldn't have to continue the medication?

No need to see a doctor. Taking Big Pharma's drugs will only put a bandaid on the problem by masking the symptoms, and add toxins to my body, that will inevitably cause other issues. I have recognised a few of these symptoms and have changed my diet (all organic, no sugar), started exercising more, detoxing with organic juicing/smoothies, and I'm also detoxing my liver with organic coffee enema's. All will be right with my body shortly...Your body is amazing, know this and be truly well...

An Iodine deficiency causes most all thyroid problems,, take Iodine in sea kelp, one of the best sources
