Guest guest Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 I gained more and more water weight the higher I got on Armour. Go figure! Amy Re: swelling upon excertion/Chuck REALLY!? Edema is not a response to hypoT? That shocks me because all these years I thought it was. So, now I need to find out what else might be causing it. My Rt3 and Ft3 ratio is 10.5 which I am told is very bad. So with the Ft3 not getting into my cells because of the Rt3 would that be causing the swelling?

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 It IS funny -- for almost any question on all these forums, people have had bizarrely different experiences!! Makes me think that getting well is more a crapshoot than anything else. BTW, what kind of diuretic do you use (or which ones are safe). I know nothing about them and my daughter is getting married in 2 weeks. It would be fun to be less bloated, cuz wedding pictures are forever! : ) Amy Re: swelling upon excertion/Chuck > > > REALLY!?

If edema is the only symptom, look for another cause. If you have several hypoT symptoms, then the usual explanation, that exercise gobbles up your T3, works.

That is one cause of non-pitting edema, although the root mechanism is not understood. It could also be lymphatic.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 At this point he has me on 60-60-75mg of Armour in a cycling pattern. My TSH is 0.03 (and yes that seems to bother him a little). My FT4 is exactly midrange and they forgot to do a FT3 like they usually do. The T3 uptake was at the top of the range. Is that a useful lab at all or is FT3 the only decent measure of T3? Can anything be surmised at least by the Uptake number? I just don't want to pay $90 for a FT3 if the other tells us anything. The Dr just started me on 20mg of DHEA as the next step. He isn't averse to raising Armour more -- just wanted to try this first. As docs go -- this one is pretty good. He told me to take selenium and zinc along with the Armour and also Iodoral : ) I take the first 2 but all the iodine controversies on these forums has scared the crap out of me for trying that. I am 80% better and some days are great -- I just can't seem to get over the final hump and it's frustrating. Thanks for helping!

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 well there is potential with this doc I guess but it is horribly frustrating that they treat to the TSH and are sooo scared, just don't know how to use this med. I think the minimum Armour dose is 180mg, and hey I used to be only able to tolerate 90mg, and I have had a partial (whatever that means) thyroidectomy. I wish I had been given iodine/iodide in childhood--I would have been spared a lifetime of misery. I have the history of iodine saved that I can send to you or search for it in the archives.

The T3 uptake was at the top of the range. Is that a useful lab at all or is FT3 the only decent measure of T3?... Uptake is an obsolete (although cheap) method of deducing globulin binding. If you measure FT4 and T4, that gives you the same thing and more precisely. Once you have eliminated binding as an issue, you shouldn't need to keep retesting it. An alternative way to avoid the FT3 test, if you don't have insurance, is to measure FT4, T4, and T3, and assume they obey the ratio: FT4/T4 = FT3/T3. However, the most precise method is to measure FT3 directly. None of this addresses conversion issues. If your T3 is low compared to T4, you may be converting too much of the T4 to RT3. This is a well studied part of the metabolism of T4, which can have pronounced adverse effects when there is too much RT3.

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 well there! remember though that allopathic docs don't use iodine/iodide or cortef, which could solve the RT3 prob.

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 , You're right, allopathic medicine had a " little " to do with extending lifetime(s), VERY little. But, still -- the physicians of the world " think " they had something to do with it, just because they push the pills on you that are foisted on them by their drug reps. In TRUTH, the big rise in American longevity was mostly occasioned by my friends, the water engineers, who -- for VERY LITTLE money, send you and MOST AMERICANS relatively " clean " water -- for drinking, bathing, and other healthful purposes, like cooking and cleaning. In addition, most of the " rest " of the longevity story belongs to the wasterwater, or sanitation engineers, who -- also for a mere, monthly pittance, in most American communities -- take away your waste stream(s), including fecal material which used to be " tossed out the upper window, " from the Chamber pot, especially in ean England. AS a result, few Americans, anymore, manage -- quite as often -- to pollute their own on-site, " water-wells " with fecal pollution from the outhouse, which for convenience, they usually located too close to the well, anyhow, so that they didn't have to run too far on a cold morning, in order to dump their own " stuff " into the ground. PHARMACUTICAL-BASED MEDICINE's main contribution to health is from pretty-good " trauma care, " which they learned how to perform from MASH, either watching it on TV, or from actual experience in the field in Korea, just like on TV, or in Vietnam, when in-the-field trauma care really became a scientifically-developed medical resource. Today, IF YOU HAVE AN EMERGENCY, go to the best Trauma Care Center you can find. Most likely, you will receive the very best of care, because THOSE dedicated Doctors and Nurses have BECOME VERY GOOD AT BANDAGING UP VERY SICK, INJURED, AND DYING PEOPLE HOWEVER, once you are " out of trauma danger, " get thee OUT OF THE HOSPITAL because it's actually really easy to die IN a modern, American hospital. In fact, Iatrogenic Disease IS the MAJOR CAUSE OF DEATH, each year, in AMERICA, TODAY, easily surpassing Heart Disease, AND Cancer ! That's right, you are MORE LIKELY, today, TO DIE AT THE HANDS OF YOUR DOCTOR than from any other cause. Try to get ANY hospital to give your their staph-infection, death statistics, and you'll most likely find that YOUR local community hospital will refuse to tell YOU how many people they have killed, in the past 365 days. GO HOME, you're safer there. Anyhow, Morrris Fishbein and the boys at the FDA and other government-resting places, managed to make the AMA into such a strong PHYSICIAN'S TRADE UNION, with the primary intent of defending medical " turf, " that not a heck of a lot of " medical progress " was made during his reign. A graduate physician, yes, Fishbein, to my knowledge, never practiced medicine for a day in his life. So, to the present, about 6 out of 7 physicians, today, ADMIT that they don't really have much of an idea of what they're doing, except for giving out the 'pill-du-jour,' i.e., the " new " medicine left by their drug-detail wo/man last Thursday, before you came in on Monday. As a result of this and on top of unrestricted pill and potion advertising on TV, we have 10 year old boys " asking their doctor,' for the PURPLE pill. AND, we have 8 year old girls on their periods. WOW ! What great contributions the allopaths have made. Yet, we have great men and women, like Ignatius Semmelweiss, Antoine Beauchamps, Royal Rife, Max Gerson, , Ann Wigmore, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Burzinski (sp?), Hulda , Langer, Judah Folkman (who just died), Jerry Knox, and a host of others -- who have held " REAL " cures in their hands, but who, for reasons advanced BY the allopathic disease-care system, have been prevented from bringing those " cures " to the public they wished to serve. And, let's not ignore Jethro Kloss, Bernard Jenson, Norman W. , Lorraine Day, Paavo Airola, Pavel Yutsis, , C. Atkins, n Whitaker, I. Lane, Francis, T. Everson, Trudeau, Ben Lerner, WIlliams, Ralph Moss, and the host of people over at Life Extension Foundation, plus Roy Monahan and Alan Cassels -- and probably hundreds more, all of whom have had great insights into health, and health-care. But, even my sister has been known to say, " Your Doctor doesn't care if you get well, s/he only cares if you pay the bill. " Jaded? Perhaps! Experienced? PROBABLY. The ONE instance where today's medicine MIGHT stand proud is possibly in Surgery. Micro surgery, and organ transplants come to mind as heroic. BUT, IF your surgeon is late on his BMW payment, you're surely gonna get something cut off. See? The entire American medical system is like a FUNNEL, where millions of patients get channeled into the open-mouthed top of a gigantic funnel, and a few hundred thousand come out the bottom into the waiting hands of a surgeon who, when you greet her/him with a simple " Good morning, Doctor, " you get back a polite, but over-assuming, " Thank You. " Virtually ALL Modern-day, Major Medical Research, today, is focused on some form of Caloric Restriction. See? Scientists learned about 40 years ago, that if you feed laboratory rats half as much food, they live twice as long -- but they're NOT HAPPY about it. In humans, that translates to about 1200 calories a day (just above starvation), and in this 'land of plenty,' our FELLOW AMERICANS just are not " gonna " starve, merely for a slight, extra 50 years of healthy life. IF you have had been able to " read between the lines, " , you'da seen that ALL that research above, really means that " REDUCING the acidic assault " on the body potentially DOUBLES the life-span of hte human inside that body. It really is NO HARDER than that. I, personally, asked Dr. Folkman, " Is it really THIS easy? " and he said, " Yes, it is. " Your wife will be okay. I'll have my colleague, Dr. _ _ _ _ _ look into it, and give her a call. And, this was when Dr. Folkman was the " Chair, " I think, of the Harvard University Cancer Research Department (or some such), and affiliated with Boston Children's Memorial Hospital. Dr. Folkman said, " Oh, and along the way, we can make Macular Degeneration 'go away,' but we hardly ever talk about that, anymore, and [we] leave it to the Eye Surgeons to 'take care of it.' " ALLOPATHS? Are they any better than the Homeopaths? Remember, when you go to your physician, about 46% of all American physician-practitioners have admitted, in writing, that they have " abused " their own prescribing powers, presumably to get their own " drugs, etc.). " This means that on your very NEXT doctor visit, you have almost a 50/50 chance of getting a doctor " under the influence. " Trauma, OK! Chronic care, NO WAY! OK, NO WAY ! Hail me, , if you would care to explore these issues in greater detail. Please !

PHARMACUTICAL-BASED MEDICINE's main contribution to health is from pretty-good " trauma care, " which they learned how to perform from MASH, either watching it on TV, or from actual experience in the field in Korea, just like on TV, or in Vietnam, when in-the-field trauma care really became a scientifically-developed medical resource. Today, IF YOU HAVE AN EMERGENCY, go to the best Trauma Care Center you can find. Most likely, you will receive the very best of care, because THOSE dedicated Doctors and Nurses have BECOME VERY GOOD AT BANDAGING UP VERY SICK, INJURED, AND DYING PEOPLE HOWEVER, once you are " out of trauma danger, " get thee OUT OF THE HOSPITAL because it's actually really easy to die IN a modern, American hospital. In fact, Iatrogenic Disease IS the MAJOR CAUSE OF DEATH, each year, in AMERICA, TODAY, easily surpassing Heart Disease, AND Cancer ! That's right, you are MORE LIKELY, today, TO DIE AT THE HANDS OF YOUR DOCTOR than from any other cause. Try to get ANY hospital to give your their staph-infection, death statistics, and you'll most likely find that YOUR local community hospital will refuse to tell YOU how many people they have killed, in the past 365 days. GO HOME, you're safer there. Anyhow, Morrris Fishbein and the boys at the FDA and other government-resting places, managed to make the AMA into such a strong PHYSICIAN'S TRADE UNION, with the primary intent of defending medical " turf, " that not a heck of a lot of " medical progress " was made during his reign. A graduate physician, yes, Fishbein, to my knowledge, never practiced medicine for a day in his life. So, to the present, about 6 out of 7 physicians, today, ADMIT that they don't really have much of an idea of what they're doing, except for giving out the 'pill-du-jour,' i.e., the " new " medicine left by their drug-detail wo/man last Thursday, before you came in on Monday. As a result of this and on top of unrestricted pill and potion advertising on TV, we have 10 year old boys " asking their doctor,' for the PURPLE pill. AND, we have 8 year old girls on their periods. WOW ! What great contributions the allopaths have made. Yet, we have great men and women, like Ignatius Semmelweiss, Antoine Beauchamps, Royal Rife, Max Gerson, , Ann Wigmore, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Burzinski (sp?), Hulda , Langer, Judah Folkman (who just died), Jerry Knox, and a host of others -- who have held " REAL " cures in their hands, but who, for reasons advanced BY the allopathic disease-care system, have been prevented from bringing those " cures " to the public they wished to serve. And, let's not ignore Jethro Kloss, Bernard Jenson, Norman W. , Lorraine Day, Paavo Airola, Pavel Yutsis, , C. Atkins, n Whitaker, I. Lane, Francis, T. Everson, Trudeau, Ben Lerner, WIlliams, Ralph Moss, and the host of people over at Life Extension Foundation, plus Roy Monahan and Alan Cassels -- and probably hundreds more, all of whom have had great insights into health, and health-care. But, even my sister has been known to say, " Your Doctor doesn't care if you get well, s/he only cares if you pay the bill. " Jaded? Perhaps! Experienced? PROBABLY. The ONE instance where today's medicine MIGHT stand proud is possibly in Surgery. Micro surgery, and organ transplants come to mind as heroic. BUT, IF your surgeon is late on his BMW payment, you're surely gonna get something cut off. See? The entire American medical system is like a FUNNEL, where millions of patients get channeled into the open-mouthed top of a gigantic funnel, and a few hundred thousand come out the bottom into the waiting hands of a surgeon who, when you greet her/him with a simple " Good morning, Doctor, " you get back a polite, but over-assuming, " Thank You. " Virtually ALL Modern-day, Major Medical Research, today, is focused on some form of Caloric Restriction. See? Scientists learned about 40 years ago, that if you feed laboratory rats half as much food, they live twice as long -- but they're NOT HAPPY about it. In humans, that translates to about 1200 calories a day (just above starvation), and in this 'land of plenty,' our FELLOW AMERICANS just are not " gonna " starve, merely for a slight, extra 50 years of healthy life. IF you have had been able to " read between the lines, " , you'da seen that ALL that research above, really means that " REDUCING the acidic assault " on the body potentially DOUBLES the life-span of hte human inside that body. It really is NO HARDER than that. I, personally, asked Dr. Folkman, " Is it really THIS easy? " and he said, " Yes, it is. " Your wife will be okay. I'll have my colleague, Dr. _ _ _ _ _ look into it, and give her a call. And, this was when Dr. Folkman was the " Chair, " I think, of the Harvard University Cancer Research Department (or some such), and affiliated with Boston Children's Memorial Hospital. Dr. Folkman said, " Oh, and along the way, we can make Macular Degeneration 'go away,' but we hardly ever talk about that, anymore, and [we] leave it to the Eye Surgeons to 'take care of it.' " ALLOPATHS? Are they any better than the Homeopaths? Remember, when you go to your physician, about 46% of all American physician-practitioners have admitted, in writing, that they have " abused " their own prescribing powers, presumably to get their own " drugs, etc.). " This means that on your very NEXT doctor visit, you have almost a 50/50 chance of getting a doctor " under the influence. " Trauma, OK! Chronic care, NO WAY! OK, NO WAY ! Hail me, , if you would care to explore these issues in greater detail. Please ! Thanks, and God Bless, Dr. Dan (877) 585-8552, NOT a MEDICAL DOCTOR, neither diagnosing, prescribing, treating, healing, or curing goin' on 'round heahhh! Hear? Thyroid? I take Levothyroid.

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 allopathic medicne is a disease maintenance system. > > Gracia Allopathic medicine is a " Money-Making " disease enhancing system, designed to keep people dependent on pills and potions, as long as it's PROFITABLE to do so. I mis-quoted my sister, the other day. She actually said, " Your doctor doesn't " care " whether you live or die, s/he only cares whether you pay the bill. " Anyhow, I was " devastatingly ill " in 1992, fat, bloated, unable to retain consciousness - even in active conversation, fainting at the wheel of the car, and COLD all the time, when I was sent into the hospital for diagnostic testing. After several days of prodding, poking, enemaing, x-raying, MRI'ing, and about every thing else, including a upper GI examination, and a barium enema examination, I was finally diagnosed with Congenital Redundant Colon, and hypothyroidism. I was prescribed TWO, 0.175 levothyroid tablets a day, and within a year, I had shed about 80 - 90 pounds of excess weight, had regained my energy and obtained a new job, wrote an article which was published in Mother Earth News (2 million ciculation), started " active " living again, gave up the wheelchair ride I had had to have -- just to take my son TO DisneyWorld, lost my thoughts of young-death, and started to move on with my life. Today, I am an incredibly-healthy, almost 57 year old man with a new " Alternative Health-Care practice, focusing on pH re-normalization -- which is " saving MS, CA, IBS and IBD, CVD, BP, and Diabetic 'almost-client(s)' a lot of time, trouble, and money, " and which is keeping them alive, and in better health than they have had in years. Next to no one quits therapeutic application of the ideas I suggest. THE HEP C guy I talk with has low - to - NO viral counts to bother him, and the BS people are able to " forget " where all the clean potties are in Myrtle Beach. NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED IN OUR RESEARCH, AND NO ONE HAS GONE " BROKE " OVER THE 8 TO 90 cents a day cost they spend on " health " stuff. Oh, the nutritional supplements they buy at Wallyworld aren't very expensive either! One of these days, " 'I'm " probably gonna get around to charging them a fee of some kind, but today, I even pay for a toll-free phone line so that sick people don't even have to pay to contact me. Thanks y'all, for lettin' me BE a part of your web site on healing. Dr. Dan Kukulka, NOT a MEDICAL DOCTOR, by the Grace of God, but a PhD researcher who has forgot how to " follow " the crowd, toward the profit-motive selling pills, potions, and nostrums. 1100 Lovell Ct Conway, SC 29526 (843) 455-9208 (877) 585-8552 -- play with the letters on your telephone key pad :-) God Bless us, everyone !
