What should be first steps.?

June 28, 2011

I have just started to post here and could do with some advice on starting to

self medicate. I have just had all my tests repeated for the umpteenth time and

all are normal. I had an occasional T4 at 9.4 then it goes up to 19 again, TSH

is usually around 1.5.. I will check out the others and getbthem posted, I had

an anti body test that was normal about 2 years ago, apparently it's not

repeated if it's normal as not usually any change. My symptoms are huge...

Extreme fatigue,muscle weakness, aches and pains, bad headaches, stomach

bloating dry skin, itchy sore eyes, night sweats, anxiety, sleep prolems

despite being exhausted..etc..etc.. I have ordered some adrenal support as I

think it could a good place to start. This is a minefield to me at the moment

and I am quite concerned at taking all this on myself. I think as time goes on

I will find I have several hormone deficiencies.. But I need to get started.

Should I get more tests done, and what should I get tested.. Where is the best

lab to get the tests done, what are the best supplements, when should I start to

take NDT... .??? I have lots of books and info, but as I feel so unwell and

foggy headed most of the time I would appreciate a bit of advice.. I have a

diagnoses of M.E. fibromyalgia , anxiety, etc.. According to my hormone test I

am through menopause.. There is a life out there and I miss myself, I went

missing nearly 20 years ago.. It's about time I made an effort to get myself

back.

Thank you for reading this .. Marilyn
