Guest guest Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 I have found many articles that suggest that fibromyalgia is simply subclinical hypothyroidism that has gone undetected due to poor lab testing. You can read more here www.drlowe.com <http://www.drlowe.com/> - I cannot tell you how many stories from real people that I have read that got rid of their fibromyalgia altogether by taking Armour thyroid...it's truly amazing, and why aren't doctors using this with all of their patients? It really bothers me that such a simple fix is not being used by all doctors. Mia _____ On Behalf Of earthmother1111 Monday, February 02, 2009 10:09 PM << >> Re: Melatonin and Autoimmune Disease? I have low thyroid and fibromyalgia; good quality sleep is very important for fibro and I was having a lot of trouble getting a good nights sleep until I started using melatonin. After some research, I started using a 3 mg. sublingual w/B12 (the B12 is supposed to help somehow). When discussing it with my ND, he suggested I may not need 3 mgs. so I started cutting them in half and found it works just fine. So, in my case, less was actually better but from what I've read, you shouldn't take anymore than 3 mgs. As for autoimmune disease, I personally haven't come across any reference to that. Perhaps you could ask Dr. Weil @ DrWeil.com Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
