Hi everyone,

 

I'm sorta new to this list. I've been lurking and learning for a

while but never posted.

 

I have hyperthyroid and am looking for alternative methods to treat

it rather than the RAI that has been recommended by doctors.

 

I would like opinions and advice on natural or alternative diagnostic

tools too. I have talked to some alternative health providers and

one of the first questions I have is, what about Electrodiagnostic,

Electrodermal ?

It's very hard to determine what is a scam and what is valuable.

It's been recommended to me to have Electrodermal diagnosis but I've

read a lot of bad things about it.

Is it a scam or real?

 

Anything else anyone can suggest to me? I am not sure what type of

alternative health care person to go to or what to look for. I don't

know the difference between holistic, naturopath, alternative doctors

etc.. , are they all the same thing or equally as good? Who should I

go to?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Look for an ND (naturopath) or an MD who is a member of ACAM. Find one at

www.acam.org.

 

You can diagnose thyroid (hypo/hyper) problems with a basal temperature test.

Ask if you'd like detailed instructions.

Thank you Linda,

 

I went to ACAM and there are no doctors listed in my area. I

found a couple naturopaths in the phone book. I'll call them. Is

there anything I should ask them about their practice, techniques or

themselves?

 

I have already been diagnosed by a doctor but I have read about the

basal temperature test and will try it too.

Thank you for the suggestions.

 

If anyone else has any you can write me privately too if you wish.

I would say just ask them whatever you want to know and notice how you feel

about them and what they say. I usually do best when I let my intuition guide

me.

Hi,

 

I suffer from the opposite problem, hypothyroid. For now some things you

can do on your own is eat more of the foods they tell us with underactive

thyroid to avoid. For you they should have the opposite effect of slowing it

down.

The other thing to watch for is iodine sensitivity. So beware of iodized

table salt.

 

Here is a link to a food list.

Good Luck!

You might also consider MACA, a thyroid balancing

super food from the high Andes. It is literally as

safe as cabbage, it is a member of the turnip family.

 

Dr Viana Muller had a conversation about Maca on with

thyroid expert Mary Shomon.

 

I hope this link works, otherwise Google both names.
