Guest guest Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Hello Caring Folks...Have reached out before, but cc'ing my wife for 1st time..Have also sent to iodine group as well... We have visited about 3 different docs (for wife) and all want to do a TT (total thyroidectomy) due to thyroid cancer (confirmed via biopsy).. However, no TT yet...I guess that's a great thing after reading all the posts...She wants to wait at least 6 months to try other paths. Sonogram (12/18/2010) shows a solid vascular nodule in the left side of thyroid that measures 1.3 x 1.9 cm PET Scan (01/06/2011) shows 2.2 x 1.4 cm March 2nd 2011 - Fasting Blood Test WBC: 7.1 x10E3/uLRange: 4.0-10.5 RBC: 4.67 x10E6/uLRange: 3.8-5.1 Iron Bind.Cap.

She will be starting homeopathic meds from next week. She will also start on Nutrilite's DoubleX multivitamins, Antioxidants, Vitamin C Plus, Probiotics, Carlson's Fish Oil, and Hagiwara's Green Magma. She's also a hardcore exercise woman...1/2 marathon, weights, etc. She also has no symptoms other than kids stress :-) Does she also need to take iodine (Lugols or Iodoral) orally and/or painting the thyroid area ? By the way, does anyone know about Dr. Tim O' Shea out of San , CA and his website: http://www.thedoctorwithin.com/intro/ Thanks Parvin and Saj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
