Re: AF, Hashimoto's, estrogen dominance and 15 years of SSRIs. Is there any hope for recovery?
I respectfully disagree with Natway. Diet is an important factor, but all of our bodies and situations are different, so I would definitely not accept a fruit/carb diet and expect it to make a big dent in a situation as complex as yours by itself. This advice is misleading as a cure all, but it still may or may not have value for certain people or as a piece of the healing puzzle.
That being said, the goiter may imply hashimotos. Hashimotos is connected to celiac disease and gluten intolerance, so if you have not looked there I would do so. Celiac ravages the body.
Also, metal poisoning does seem likely. Not as easy thing to test for, 2 options are a urine challenge test or a hair mineral analysis test from ARL labs. The hair test is an excellent way to look into some of the different dynamics going on in your body.
Lastly, go to a naturopath, they will probly be much more helpful than a gp. Hang in there, lots of people recover and many can and do get better myself included. SSRI's aren't good for you, but I don't believe they doom us.
