Guest guest Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 Abbe, Are you hypo hyper or do you just have an enlarged t hyroid? I have an enlarged thyroid. I'm doing research on how to treat it. I am having trouble sleeping- wake up coughing and feel like im choking at times. I'm thinking of taking armour- I have no intention of having it removed after hearing the horror stories on the thyroid - you should join. Good luck RJ --- Abbe <abbe_online wrote: > Hello, > > Just wondering if anyone has *any* information on > thyroid replacement > medications. > > Please and thank you, > > Abbe > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 Hello RJ, Hypo. I am interested in anything the alternative community may have to offer on thyroid replacement. I do not believe there is a one-size-fits-all approach to this or any other problem. Yes, perhaps the one thing very clear from reading on the internet is do not allow them to remove your thyroid. I'm with you on that. This has not been suggested to me in any case. I feel sad for people who have had that experience but they seem to be able to find a way to live reasonably normal lives despite it. I had trouble sleeping only when I had too much thyroid replacement. At least that is what I think caused it. This is the only time in my life, except for high stress situations, when I've had trouble sleeping. Armour may work for some people. I am not convinced it would work for everyone and I think it may even be dangerous for some people. I have tried it and, for example, heart palpitations became worse as did the tired-wired feeling. I do not mean to imply this would happen to everyone. My T3 is in the normal range and that may have something to do with it as I understand Armour contains T3. Best wishes with your efforts to care for yourself, Abbe , Rebecca Dickler <alternativebelle wrote: > > Abbe, > Are you hypo hyper or do you just have an enlarged t > hyroid?
