Guest guest Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 Hi folks! I have hypothyroidism. My thyroid is not just slow. It really is dead. The synhetic drugs have not done much for me. I am wondering if accupunture would be the right approach to get my thyroid going again? Any opinions? Thank you! Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 Synthetic thyroid meds actually kill the thyroid. I have not heard of being able to bring a dead organ back to life. However I have heard of other organs in the body steppping up to the plate and taking over the functions of the dead, diseased or removed organs. I have also seen improvment when clients switch to natural thyroid meds and stop the synthetics.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 How can you tell it is dead? I have heard of this, but no details, really. I'm just curious.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Acupuncture could help jump-start it, as well as Armour, which I am on and it seems to work very well. Also, my naturopath has me on iodine drops, one drop in a glass of water a day, and 2 drops of selenium in the same glass of water as well, to help the thyroid utilize the Armour. I definitely think the acupuncture could help...my naturo did acupuncture on me for my liver to help metabolize the Armour better....when I first started it I couldn't tolerate the full 60 mg dose, not even half a dose even. I had to do a quarter of a tablet plus the drops to help...now I am up to the full dosage. I hope this helps.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 I have all the symptoms and I have been tested for it. So after the doctor read the results he looked up and said well basically your thyroid is dead. So in a nutshell, that's how I know.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 The drugs for an inactive or slow Thyroid have to be started out at low doses and slowly raised till the correct pp blood volume is reached. Is your doctor doing this or did he/she just prescribe a dosage and forgot about the protocol? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
