Guest guest Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Hi everyone I saw Dr P yesterday - sorry was too tired to post when I got home. I AM hypothyroid with Hashimoto's - hooray a diagnosis! That means I'm not going mad after all. Dr P says I have been hypoT for at least 5 years probably much longer. I have my diary and a couple of tests on order for adrenals and candida. Can anyone tell me if I will need to take NAX indefinitely for life or just till my adrenals are boosted? How much should I order? Presumably I don't take any till I've done my tests right? After three weeks he says I can start Nutri Thyroid supplements. Any thoughts on how may of those to order? He said they might not be strong enough and I might want to consider 1 grain Armour. Therefore would I be better off going straight to Armour? Money is tight and I can't really afford to experiment with too many things that might not be strong enough to do the job. What do you all think? Dr P also did my Achilles reflex and said I'd be lucky if I scored 2 out of 10 for the really weak reaction he got! I cannot tell you how relieved I am, I guess many of you can identitfy with that. I have been sent another appt with the NHS endo - 13th November. Dr P thinks it will be a waste of time. anyone else have any opinions? You were right Sheila it did feel like the first day of the rest of my life and I don't think my symptoms are as bad as some of you fellow thyroidians. Sorry for the barrage of questions but look forward to hearing any thoughts anyone might have. Luv Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
