Guest guest Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 Interesting, but how do I know if my thyroid is altogether gone? Is it because I have been on medication so many years?

Again, if your thyroid is already gone, additional fluoride probably does no harm, and it at least toughens your teeth against cavities. Chuck --------------------------------- Never miss a thing.

Oxalate is the anion of oxalic acid, which I mentioned before. I think this mostly means oxalate ions bind to iron in the digestive system to prevent it from being absorbed. Phosphates and phytates do the same thing, and all of them also prevent absorption of calcium by binding it. These do have effects on iron and calcium in serum, if levels get too high. Food with the highest oxalate content: chocolate! Six others to be avoided with spinach if you have oxalate kidney stones (hyperoxaluria): rhubarb, strawberries, wheat bran, nuts, beets, and tea.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 I've been of Thyrolar for 50 years. The doctors have been decreasing my dose for quite a while now. I used to be on 4 grains and felt fine. It occurs to me now that after my dose was reduced back in 1996, I got sick and remained so for about 9 months. Then I came down with the fibro, which I've had ever since. I had the two episodes of Afib which required me to be taken to ER, and then the doc lowered it again. I felt so bad on 1-1/2 grains that I started dividing my dosage on in the am and one in the evening. I have been taking it with or after food, and the afib seems to be doing better.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Roni, It sounds like you kept getting worse whenever your dose was lowered. Doesn't that sound like you are not getting enough? Just take it slower and maybe the palps will not appear. Your fibro appeared after they lowered your dose, right. HypoT and fibro go together, so to speak. Have you gone to drlowe.com? Very extensive info on fibro there. I have been increasing my dose of Armour for the last 2 1/2 weeks by taking 1/2 grain more a day. I will be doing that for another 1/2 week and then I will make it a whole grain. I have not had any palps doing it this way. Venizia > > > > I'm currently taking 2 grains. > > That is at the lower range for full replace dose, equivalent to 120 mcg > of T4.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 I also think my problems are related to not enough thyroid. However, I have to be really careful, because the TSH is very low, and they said this could cause a heart attack, as well as the atrial fibrillation could cause a heart attack or a stroke. The doctor had me down to 1-1/2 grains, and I'm back up to 2 grains divided and so far so good. The next increase will be 1/2 grain, but I want to give it time to register what I have now. I put into another post that some of your messages are coming into my bulk mail. I 'don't always check it, just delete the whole thing, so I don't know just how much I have missed. I don't know how you could check it out. Roni venizia1948 <nelsonck@...> wrote: Roni, It sounds like you kept getting worse whenever your dose was lowered.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 The likelihood of being able to eat, drink, smell or touch anything that has not been polluted by some kind of chemical somehow is so slim as to be practically non-existent. We are all trying to deal with a myriad of symptoms and " disease " , and all the while we are being made sicker and sicker by the chemicals that are being forced into our bodies by the manufacturers and processors of EVERYTHING! We don't just need an overhaul in the medical and pharmaceutical industries, we need an overhaul in every industry in America, starting with the agencies that are supposed to protect us against harmful substances.
