Thryoid Question

Royal Jelly huh? Haven't heard of that - what does it do? What is it exactly? I'm definitely interested

I'm eager to be gluten-free and am counting down the days until that produre is over. eating that way in addition to the supplements (Trying antioxidant/mutli from DR. Weil and a Krill Oil with Evening Primose from Dr. Mercola, in addition to Emergen C and, for now, an Iron supplement....when I can go to eating lean proteins veggies, and not worrying about Gluten, I have a feeling my energy will sky rocket.

I hope you find relief with the thryoid dosage. I wish it wasn't a battle for you to be treated. Based on what Im reading, I'm feeling very grateful that I've found at least one doc who seems to "get it". I believe integrated mds are def the way to go.

Royal Jelly- i think is from the Queen Bee... it is supposed to calm the Grave's antibodies. **if u have an allergy to bees- suggested to avoid it.

and Selenium helps both abs..

i got this info from the guys at:

www.greenmedinfo.com

they compile hundreds of medical articles- so u can search for a disease or supplement and come up with a bunch of studies relating to it.

i also read somewhere about a mushroom supplement that's supposed to calm an overactive immune system- but i cant find the link, and am kind of already overwhelmed with the $$$ of stuff i take already.

I know! The price of all these supplements are crazy! I will look into the royal jelly.

Looking forward to wed. ugh. I feel like crap and just want to get this over with. Cannot wait to go gluten-free at this point!

The cloudy/headedness is crazy. it's odd b/c I didn't really notice it as a symptom at first, and then went gluten-free... and now that I'm glutening up, I'm lightheaded/foggy/dizzy every day (thinking the hashi's plays a part but still)....again, cannot wait to be done with this

Whether it comes out positive or not, I think it's clear to me that I feel better without it

      knitty kitty makes a good point. Avocados are high in histamines. So are bananas. Both also trigger histamine production in the body when consumed so there's a double whammy with those two foods for those struggling with histamine intolerance/MCAS

      @Sharke, The updated guidelines for a gluten challenge are to eat ten grams of gluten per day for two weeks minimum.  Lesser amounts of gluten (3 grams) don't provoke an immune response strong enough that the antibodies leave the gastrointestinal tract and get into the blood where they can be measured in tTg blood tests.   Have no doubt that the antibodies made in the small intestine are doing damage there, even if you don't suffer severe symptoms, yet. Did you react to barley prior to going gluten free? Have you been checked for chronic autoimmune gastritis which is another autoimmune disease that sometimes occurs with Celiac Disease? Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Thiamine deficiency (Gastrointestinal Beriberi) can cause constipation and/or diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss.   Thiamine Deficiency Disorders https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8451766/

      @sillyyak52, Count another one in the same boat!  My family has always been in denial.  They said my tummy aches were a ploy to miss school.  My parents passed from health problems associated with uncontrolled Celiac Disease (Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm and Glioblastoma brain tumor).  My sister still has her head buried in the sand.   I agree with @Rogol72, try the consequences of untreated celiac disease shock treatment.  Sometimes people are just scared of having to change their comfortable lifestyle.

      I have never been tested for tTg 6 antibodies but I will certainly do that next time I'm at the doc's.  Maybe there's a home test kit for that?  I drink lactose free milk and seem to be ok so I'm probably not a casein case but...who knows?!

      I take Life Extension brand Mega Benfotiamine, (250 mg with each of two meals) and Maxlife Natural TTFD-B1 Max Thiamine (100 mg).   I try to take my Benfotiamine and TTFD before four pm, otherwise I have so much energy, it can be hard to fall asleep.
