Medical doctors have no clue how to accurately test the thyroid.

Especially in people like you who have other things going on. This is

especially ture of folks with chronic fatigue, mercury toxicity...

 

See: naturalthyroidhormones for the truth and help in

figuring out if you are low thyroid or not. That drrind.com site I gave

you is pretty helpful as well, but don't, I repeat DON'T rely on your

doctor's testing for this. He probably looks at TSH figures and maybe

plain T3 which will tell you little to nothing about what is actually

going on at the thyroid receptor sites. Doctors used to test properly,

and treat by symptoms and people got well, but about 50 years ago or,

so, they changed the standards of testing, and now people are being

kept sick with low functioning thyroids.

 

People with CHronic Fatigue are typically low thyroid and mercury

toxic. Please search Cheney + Chronic Fatigue and read the articles.

They are very good. Oh heck, I will just put it in this email. It is

long though...sorry guys.

 

Please hang in there...we are trying to help you.

" First Compromised: Skin and Compensatory Hypothyroidism

 

Having said this, in what order are things sacrificed and what are the

consequences? The first is the skin. If you sacrifice the

microcirculation of the skin, several problems can arise. One is that

without adequate microcirculation to the skin, the body cannot

thermoregulate anymore. [Thermoregulate: regulate body temperature]

 

You cannot stand heat or cold, although heat will be more difficult at

first than cold—in part because if you're too cold you just put on more

clothes, but how do you rip your skin off when you get too hot? If your

core temperature rises high enough, you will not sleep and your body

will activate your immune system. In order to regulate that problem,

your body will kick in thyroid regulation and you will downregulate

[reduce or suppress a response to a stimulus] your thyroid to keep your

temperature from going too high, and you will develop " compensatory

hypothyroidism " ! Now you will have trouble with cold.

 

The second thing your body will not be able to do is get rid of VOCs

(Volatile Organic Compounds), which are shed in the skin's oil ducts.

VOCs build up in the fat stores of your body and you become

progressively chemically poisoned by whatever is present in your

environment, and whatever you are genetically susceptible to—different

things in different people. If that's pretty significant, we call that

Multiple Chemical Sensitivities (MCS). If all you've got is

microcirculatory deficiency of the skin...... "
