Check into Organic unrefined (expellar pressed) Coconut oil for Thyroid problems if you don't wan't to be on medications the rest of your life. (Talk to your doctor BEFORE hand to see if it will work for you) I know a TON of people that have a regular thyroid now after taking coconut oil (daily). It has a TON of other health benefits as well....

Shoot, Ellen, most doctors don't even recognize underactive thyroid when it spits in their face :( Can't you just hear them laugh when you ask them about this? I'll go hunting on the interet - thanks for the tip. I really prefer less meds in life ...:)

They test me for thyroid and mono etc. I was a little anemic but not enought to cause such severe symptoms. I was so frustrated I practically wanted to burst into tears while I was in the office when they kept tell me that the test were showing nothing. Then they are trying to figure out if I am stressed or depressed.
The poor doctor felt bad that he couldn't find anything wrong. I think he sensed how frustrated I was. The good news is that I am better and working to get caught up on all the things I got behind on during that period.

Did they look at Chronic Fatigue Syndrome? A lot of doctors don't believe it is there, but it can be really debilitating especially combined with depression!
 
I don't think it was going on long enough to be considered chronic fatigue but it did cross my mind. If it had gone on longer I would have considered that. After dealing with it for almost a week I can't imagine what it would be like for an extended period of time.
 
I have taken Armour Thyroid in the past and it was helpful. I haven't had the issues with cold like I sometimes do. Can you have a borderline thyroid issue that comes and goes??? I go through phases when I am really cold - In the spring my feet would be so cold I couldn't sleep. I took a thyroid support supplement that helpe but I don't seem to need it all the time - Is that weird??? r
 
It is possible for your thyroid to change in how well it works because some of the things I've been reading say that your thyroid function is tied into your body temperature. If your body temperature is too low, it doesn't function properly. If your body temperature is regulated then your thyroid can work. You can get more information about it at http://www.wilsonstemperaturesyndrome.com
Until I found that site I had no clue how many things were tied to the thyroid. I have just started taking some of the supplements in the last couple of days. I haven't gone to one of the doctors who specialize in this type of treatment because there aren't any in my area. By the way, I found out about that site thru flylady.com

Laurie~

I didn't take your post as trying to rush me...don't worry silly!

I will keep you all posted on how I am doing...this past week and this coming week have been/are crazy for me so I have NOT started swapping them out just yet...
 
Kelly, I know others have said this but just wanted to say it myself. I know what you are doing is a big job with so many cards coming in. It is really appreciated and when you get them out is good enough by me.

It is a great idea and I am going to enjoy looking through them.
 
Are we still doing this?
