Re: Hashimoto's Autoimmune Thyroiditis (edited)

 Interesting Gina. Thank You. I tried so many things, and nothing's worked. I put iodine on my skin every day for years, still do. I use, or used, probiotics, enzymes, vitamins, kefir, ozone, herbs, all kinds of supplements,  and minocycline with mega doses of Benicar, an ARB on the Marshall Protocol, but now I see it's crazy. I was desperate.

I've had this for over 30 years. I've been 50% normal energy, digestion and strength at best, and now I'm about 30%. With CFS if you exert yourself you're weak, sick and tired for days afterward. We learn to pace ourselves. If we work our home life suffers. And, stress can bring on a full physical breakdown to where you feel like you're dying and need months of rest. That's where I'm at now. After this long it affects the heart to where you're in heart failure according to Dr. Cheney. Unfortunately, people don't take this disease seriously (or these viruses) and I think a lot of people die from it that were never diagnosed. It's starting to be recorded.

I'm going to try Dr. Lerners protocol with valcyte, a strong antiviral. I will also try more vitamin C, but this is now more serious for me.

Thanks, and best of health to you.
