B Vitamins, hair, thyroid, EFT and diets

[Guest guest]

Ok, I'm trying very hard to get my health better. Namely my weight problem

and autoimmune disorder.

I was getting depressed in the shower as my hair is falling out again. It

had stopped when I was pregnant for the first time in 10 or more years. I

was thinking it was just the pregnancy but I realized I was taking lots of B

vitamins and I'm not now due to the prenatal vitamins. Could this be part

of it? And if so what is the best way to get those? Nutritional Yeast?

If so, how much do I take every day?

I need to get my thyroid checked and the thyroid hormone replacement pills

adjusted. I know that ideally I need to move off of these but right now I

literally cannot function without them. My body shuts down almost

completely. I was looking into iodine and selenium supplementing but it's

tricky with my autoimmune disorder?

Would B vitamin deficiency affect that as well?

I know probiotics are supposed to help with the autoimmune problem (possibly

part of a systemic yeast infection). I'm working on that next! Already

back on my Primal Defense but I plan to buy some of that Bio-Kult and/or

Threelac.

I don't post often as I can usually find answers in the archives but I must

be missing something.

Oh and has anyone done Dr. Cowan's weight loss recommendations? Once we are

moved into our own house in a couple of weeks I'm going on it. Any pointers

would be helpful as well as recipe sources that are friendly to it.

And does someone know an EFT practitioner in or around Austin, Texas and how

much does that usually cost? Money is VERY tight right now but I'm going to

try and work it out.

Many thanks,

Dawn

Why do you think you need to move off the thyroid pills? Thyroid medication

is for life.

Maybe it would help you to take a look at...StopTheThyroidMadness.com

Especially check adrenals ..look at left of the page for lots of

info...please also read others stories and look for a good doc. on the left.

It is shocking what doctor's do NOT know about adrenal/thyroid problems.

Those folks at STTM literally saved my life.

Best to you,

I have heard and read that if I can heal my body, and the autoimmune

disorder I can heal my thyroid and get it to work again and not need the

pills. The pills make my thyroid work less and the more I take the less

likely I will ever restore it. It is pretty damaged already but I no longer

have the goiters I did. They are much smaller now, not as painful and the

doctor isn't worried about cancer anymore.

But I do have to keep increasing my doses. I am also not completely on

Armour as I want to be. He has me levoxyl because I am not converting the

thyroid hormone myself. I was seeing Dr. Ridha Arem who wrote The Thyroid

Solution but due to no longer having insurance I see him sporadically. He

doesn't even charge me for the visit but gas money to Houston plus $400 in

labs kills me right now. And that doesn't include an ultrasound of my

thyroid.

Now, no one has helped me address the adrenal issue I KNOW is part of this.

The more I read the more I see that but I don't even know where to begin

with that except to work on cleansing my body. The salt/Vit C thing looks

intriguing and I'll be starting that soon.

And I know I need to be back on the CLO.

Thanks for your help,

Dawn
