Guest guest Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 I found the shrunk goiter has growed to the " orginal " untreated size of degree II again, which is significantly seen in the mirror! I just cheered up for the thyroid goiter has shrank to degree I of size, which could be easily noticed in the mirror and by the ultrasound a few days ago. Just wondering what happened!?? I don't know if there is something wrong with my diet or other reasons. I take crab, shrimp, rape, and soy sauce (fermented soy is safe, right? I always take it in the dishes, but a little more these days and I use a different brand of it) recently, as well as the T4 hormone of 50 mcg for every day treatment. Am I undertreated? But the incremented dose has to be adjusted for more days since I just began treatment not long before.... Anyone knows the reason for it? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Hi Fragrance, Do any of your foods contain sodium glutamate (to improve the flavour)? 'Poly-glutamate' may have an unusual effect on thyroid or adrenal function. I can't be certain that I have all the information I need to be able to say for certain, but it's worth following up to see if your thyroid/health varies if you leave out the fermented soy, perhaps. I'll try and recover the reference that alerted me to this possible problem. best wishes Bob > > > I found the shrunk goiter has growed to the " orginal " untreated size of degree II again, which is significantly seen in the mirror!
