Guest guest Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 I just got hold of a book on thyroid disorders by a highly regarded local holistic MD. ly, I'm underwhelmed - he mentions that GD is one of those cases where conventional medicine may be in order yet only mentions PTU, not methimazole, and doesn't even mention lemonbalm, bugleweed, etc. in passing. But be that as it may, he does mention that research shows that 50 - 70% of people with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue have a mycoplasma infection and that he's seen similar percentages in his patients with autoimmune disorders (specifically GD and Hashimoto's). Is this worth pursuing? I'm still waiting for results from last week's bloodwork but after my appointment last week feel that he's someone I can work with should my remission end.
