Thyroid help.

Maybe it’s worth taking a look at your antibodies? I have borderline Grave’s Disease, and for the longest time, my values pertaining to my thyroid were always optimal. Until recently I started checking TPO, TG, TSI, TGII antibodies and discovered... well I have some autoimmune issue. And this autoimmune issue started attacking my thyroid. With Methimazole I have been able to keep it under control... but still I had to go the extra mile and test everythinggggg... which is annoying. I am starting to think just having an elevation in any of these antibodies causes havoc somewhere in the body which does not like.

I am only mentioning this because I have experienced all your symptoms and more. Unless there is an illness not yet discovered lol?!

I don't know if this is your post or not so I don't want to hi jack it . However, I will tell you with out a doubt low dose naltrexone can really stomp out those antibodies.

its been a while since I’ve got them tested always come back good. It’s been like 5 years. But I’ve had the symptoms for over 10

I have really wondered about ldn. I believe residual Lyme has held me back and wanted to try ldn for it. Not sure if it would work but Lyme has so many autoimmune type symptoms. I just never pulled the trigger.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
