Hello from rain soaked England! I'm Gabs or Saibotronian, totally new to posting on forums and human communications in general really.
I'll start with some background. I joined up because me and my mother both have very similar health issues. GERD, cold hands and feet, insomnia, hypnic jerks, constipation, hairloss, anemia, RA(I do use Kratom to control pain), and an intolerance to all fruit which causes mucus in stool(this started month ago for me).
Both have calprotectin on the higher side.
I'm 27 years and she's 50.
All this points to IBD causing a cascade of all sorts of other symptoms including low thyroid and the rest of it! The trouble is where to start.
We've eliminated alcohol, and PUFA for 1 year now but she is less supplement keen than me.
I take Tyronene throughout the day, usually around 40mcg total.
Kratom 5gs or so for pain management.
Vitabiotics digestive enzymes.
Rhubarb.
Gelatin.
Boswellic acid.
We both consume a varied diet :
Parmigiano cheese
Skimmed milk
Potato breads
Oat bran
White potatoes
White rice
Ox cheek
Chicken
Eggs
Honey
Syrup
Treacle
Steak
Irish stew
Coca powder
I don't have access to my most recent bloods and won't for a week or so but I can say my TSH, done separately has been reduced substantially.
Again I'm new to this whole thing but sincerely, thank you reading and commenting!
