I had been diagnosed with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis about a year ago. I was prescribed Levothyroxine, which I have been taking religiously each morning. That being said, I experienced no benefit from this medication UNTIL I discovered a few things, namely-- the medication works 100 times better when accompanied by zinc. Since I made this discovery, I have noticed my symptoms improving dramatically. Another thing I take for symptoms like inflammation, brain fog, and depression is ground turmeric powder-- two tablespoons a day with water. It is AMAZING what the turmeric does for swelling and inflammation! Lastly, I have been taken Vitamin D3 tablets, which helps my immune system. These things have made my Hashimoto Thyroiditis symptoms so much better! I hope you try this yourself and see if you too have greatly improved health.

I’ve added Maca root to my medication of Thyroxine because the Levothyroxine wasn’t doing anything and then I became allergic to it. The Maca root is a natural booster for thyroid function. I have to say I’m seeing a difference between the B, D, Turmeric, and Maca Root mixed in with the meds.

Clarifies so much...🤔

I was diagnosed with Hoshimotos 10 yrs ago. I just like the video said, low-grade fever, always exhausted, & no appetite. I was eating less than 500 calories a day. Then I started to gain weight fast & was eating nothing. I gained 10lbs every month for 5 months! In month 6 I stopped weighing myself. I felt like my body was exploding. I started to work with a great Endo. She gave a very strict anti-inflammatory diet of meat & leafy greens & some meds. I couldn’t have anything that metabolizes into sugar. It’s a long list. It took abt 2 years to get to my normal. She was very compassionate and told there was nothing I could have done on my own. In other words, it wasn’t my fault. The diet really helped. I’m not saying that everyone should do what I did. Check with your Dr.

This video made me cry. I’m getting tested for it Tuesday, I’m pretty sure I have it. it’s heartbreaking living majority of your life thinking Feeling; foggy, dizzy, experiencing MIGRAINES since 8, poor digestion, off and on puffy body, dry brittle toe/finger nails(a toe nail also falls off each foot x1 a year), IRREGULAR periods (x2 month& HEAVY), “BORING” because I’m ALWAYS FATIGUED, mood swings, TERRIBLE IMMUNE system, anxiety majority of the time “normal” and having to suck it up. I’m happy I will be getting medication for it soon. The day can’t come any sooner 😪. I advise those to take notes of ALL your symptoms so you can get treated as a WHOLE.

I just had a appointment with a specialist yesterday and she said some of my symptoms aren’t hashimotos related but I’ve done my research and after watching this video I definitely know it is. I was diagnose with hashimotos 4 years ago and no medical doctors would help. They just wanted to pump me full of anxiety medication. They basically thought all my symptoms weren’t adding up. I went through 4 doctors before finding one that actually tested me for hashimotos because she had it. It’s so upsetting when they don’t care. Just want to put this out here with people that are struggling with doctors thinking your crazy or they are not really listening to you do your own research! I now go to a holistic doctor and have started AIP diet because I bought many books and read online about the benefits! Best of luck my friends and God Bless you!

I got put on levithyroxine for two months and lost 20 pounds when I didn’t need to lose weight so they took me back off of it because it threw me into hyperthyroidism. I had energy but it was wayy to much and my anxiety was through the roof even more so than normal! Even though my numbers seemed fine all my symptoms were pointed to hyperthyroidism and too much medication. We tried cutting my dose down and it still didn’t help. So watch taking levithyroxine. Everyone is different though! I stopped taking my supplements because I felt like they weren’t helping but I am on the search for new supplements and now am going to see a neurologist because I have been having other issues. One doctor said I need my thyroid taken out one of the neurologist I seen but my thyroid doctor said absolutely not so I am at a stand still right now and doing further testing hopefully 🤞 I am thinking I either have another autoimmune disease or hashimotos is causing neurological symptoms. It’s been a roller coaster to say the least. But there’s still hope and I’m just praying I find the answers I need! Best of luck! ❤

There is a different thyroid supplement called Liothyronine (synthetic T3)which can be added to the principal one, and it did the trick for me, the Synthroid and all the others are T4, I take it but my Enocrinologist gave me that extra T3 one, because mine was low, and I take it twice a day, once with the daily dose of normal levothyroxine and then by itself in the afternoon!!!!! Oh Happy Day!!!!!!! the T4 is a stronger form of Thyroid supplements and might be associated with higher risk of excess thyroid replacement such as palpitations, arrythmias and osteoporosis. It is why he limits the normal T4 everyone gets but then reinforce it with the T3. The divine blend in my case!!!!

I was diagnosed last week and didn’t know what all was involved. Thanks for your channel!

I have been experiencing many of these symptoms for a few years now, getting progressively worse over time which triggered me to start researching if I might have an underlying condition, rather than just getting old. It was only a few days ago that I stumbled across hyperthyroidism and after several days of relentless internet research this video describes the symptoms I am experiencing so much more accurately than anything else I have seen or read. I will now be shocked if tests don't indicate that I have thyroid problem of some sort. I had been thinking I may be developing diabetes, however the sugar craving / crash symptoms described in this video make me think I probably have Hashimotos.

Yeah, sugar cravings and crashes definitely are part of Hashi's - and one of the things that makes it so hard to figure out.

It's great you mentioned that people with hashimoto can experience symptoms of hypo- and hyperthyroidism at the same time.

They don’t even follow up as they should and my other half of my thyroid gland now starts to give me problems x. It has nodes and they are growing and has pushed/moved my trachea 2 cm. But still they do not do anything. What am I suppose to do? I try everything to stay “healthy” as I have a lot of other health challenges too and also have had a huge cancer operation for soon 2 years ago. I live on anti inflammatory “diets”. Do intermittent fasting 7 days a week for 16 -22 hours. I have eliminated a lot from the foods I use to consume before and only eat 1 or 2 times a day! (Depending on how long I make my fating time!)

It is why he limits the normal T4 everyone gets but then reinforce it with the T3. The divine blend in my case!!!!

KZread just presented your video to me. Who are you and how do you know so much? I'm intrigued because last evening I started feeling Dizziness and Vertigo. You are a natural teacher and I need to listen to you

It's so crazy the number of symptoms that we go thru with this. You even made me aware of symptoms that I hadn't associated with hashi's before. Started low dose naltrexone along with my t4 and t3. It's making the flare less intense, but I can still definitely tell when I'm in a flare. This past year has been the worst year ever!

What does naltrexone do?

@naeel614

Жыл бұрын

@Lynette Price naltrexone blocks the antibodies that attack the thyroid and has anti-inflammatory properties. It was originally produced for addicts to block the affects of drugs and alcohol. but they found it worked great for many other things, in lower doses, to reduce symptoms and inflammation.

Now that make sense that no doc discusses. In fact no doc out of 10 have ever taken hashimotos seriously. 2005 diagnosed. I’m 70 now. All my information has been from me researching. Your channel is the first to describe me. Wow. Thank you. Yes heart palpitations. I can’t lose weight and I was a skinny string bean until my forties and was placed on anti depression anti panic cocktail. Then came my attached twin. You rule. Another pet peeve of mine is the scale of normalcy. When you hit the sweet spot numbers after labs, the doc states that your thyroid is fine. When was this scale developed? We are all different, but it’s treated like a cookie cutter solution. Again you rule.

OMG you listed all the symptoms I have been experiencing & No doctor has ever spoken about these symptoms especially the one u mentioned Apathy & general malaise which are one of the worst to go through

Was diagnosed today and am now watching this video. Having to stop and go back as I lose focus (fun!). Went out today to buy a few Christmas presents and feel like I’m hungover, like you described. My body aches, brain is tired, foggy, I feel exhausted. This morning I even did a COVID test and checked my temperature to see if I was ok. I am negative and have a normal temp. I’m pretty young and workout so to me those things never made sense but now it’s all starting to. Thanks for the video, I’ll also check your website ❤️

I was diagnosed in 2004, hypo & hyper so no treatment for 11 yrs until I became more consistently hypo. My teeth hurt at times, thought it was my fibromyalgia, tmj, heart palpitations, thinning hair omg, I think I'll be bald one day. Anxiety out of nowhere! Video is spot on. I take lots of supplements to support my body, on a gluten free diet, no canola oil only olive oil, check out diet for hashimotos you'll be surprised the foods you SHOULDN'T have. Meditate, yoga/ stretches. I take Armour instead of synthroid, works well for me, more natural than synthetic. Recommend ultrasound of thyroid every couple years especially if you've been struggling with Hashimotos for a long time. ITS A STRUGGLE BUT KEEP MOVING FORWARD, your body will thank you. Oh, finding a Dr who listens to you is key. I was blessed to find my Dr, not an endocrinologist but knowledgeable about hashimotos, listens, tests me ( all thyroid panel & antibody tests). Don't be discouraged, its not in your head. I researched, read and read. Asked alot of questions of my Dr. Still trying to eat a clean diet, eliminated many foods, take supplements to strengthen my body because when I don't feel well/ exhausted I don't eat. There's answers out there like this video which is so informative and educational. Omega 3, L-theamine , B12, B complex helps with my stress/ mood. Surround yourself with people who want to understand, who will read the information about hashimotos to understand what your dealing with. BE KIND TO YOURSELF, YOU'RE OK!

@@Hk78666 Yeah, it can be a symptom that your thyroid is off but also your adrenals are taxed. It's all interconnected - so that advice that I gave you in the other comment should also work for sleep. But in addition - you may need to look at stress management as well - it might be good to take a look at your daily life and notice if you have any ongoing stress (can be little, doesn't have to be a huge thing). Is there anything that you can get rid of or lessen? Not that just the one thing will automatically give you sleep, but it's good to start being aware of these things as they all add up and the constant taxing of your adrenals in addition to your thyroid being attacked can really make everything worse.

I have been complaining about every single symptom for over two years and instead of investigating my thyroid I was labelled with adjustment reaction depression But they didn’t tell me and I had to find out very unconventionally, as I was researching that diagnosis I found this video and my bad days outweighed my good days by over 250 days per year. Thank you for maybe pointing my dr in a direction with the blood work and ultrasounds and biopsy. My dr likes to gaslight me so if I bring him this he won’t refuse the tests. My kids deserve their mom back Even the diet direction is huge as I can take control of that right away while I wait. I lost 20lbs overnight 2 years ago and never gained it back. This is def a hormone issue but my endocrinologist doesn’t like me because I yelled at him for forcing me to wear a mask when I am exempt and he knows I know he chemically castrates children.

Thank you! I have been very confused as my intuition said that this is something hormonal, but when I looked up the symptoms for both hypo- and hyperthyroidism I seemed to have both! This explains it neatly; I could have Hashimoto. Anyway, I need to be diagnosed soon as I think that I am arriving to a dangerous level with my symptoms.

I’m glad you addressed this in this video. My hope is that they eventually do more research to help all of us with the many symptoms we experience.
