Hello, @Charlie & everyone else
I was reading a post/conversation about thyroid cynomel. I thought after reading the post, you might be able to help me hopefully. You seem to know what your are doing and I would be so thankful for your help. My question is, I started eating metabolically enhancing foods about a year ago. Strictly, and I watch very closely what I put into my body etc. I have never felt better, but I have days or moments where I'm all full of energy and suddenly everything goes dark. I mean like no energy, brain fog, easily annoyed ( normally I'm not) sometimes these symptoms are for a brief moment. There are days where it's an all day type of thing/on and off. I have noticed recently after meals (OJ,raw milk,low fat milk, coconut oil,pastured eggs,coffee,raw honey sometimes local honey, grassfed beef liver, and on rare occasion chicken liver/Grassfed bone broth, Kosher gelatin hydrolyzed, organic kale (rarely) my symptoms disappear completely. My question is, if I want to start taking thyroid where do I start? I am trying to read as much as I can on the RP website about it but I guess I just need more help before I make any big decisions. Where would I buy it? How do I take it? Is there a certain kind for women my age ? What dose should I start with ?
Here is a little info about me, health history wise…
-current weight 160 Height 5'5
-I do resistance training 3-4 times a week/durring and after work out I do lots of fresh OJ/I take breaks etc in between reps 1-2 hour sessions.
-Mother of 3
-29 years old
-never took any form of birth control/pills
-in my teenage years I had trouble with weigh/dieting.
-I have done almost every low-carb diet (very long time ago)
-former vegetarian for a brief moment (very long time ago)
-I was told I was anemic with every pregnancy- but I think I am a lot better (liver at least twice a week)
-I have read something about antibiotics and thyroid -I never took antibiotics in the form of pills but with every pregnancy when you go into to have a baby they give you antibiotics in the form of some water solution/iv drip. (several bags) I do remember that.
-Sorry TMI ( my periods are normal) but my energy levels are really low/cranky/moody right around my ovulation time up until my period starts then I'm okay. It's like I was brought back alive or something and I can go through my day smoothly again
-during my dieting/low carb days I use to restrict all sugar unless it was a cheat meal (processed junk)
-I started adapting a healthy life after my sister passed away of breast cancer at age 22
-I never drank milk religious until a few years ago
-random but it might help? I use refined expeller pressed TD certified organic coconut oil
-I eat fruits cooked/stewed only apples, very ripe bananas(rare) or plums sometimes
-I have OJ first thing when I wake up, and then an hour later I have my carrot salad (1 organic carrot/shredded lengthwise, coconut oil, salt, braggs apple cider vinegar) another hour later I have breakfast. Usually some combination of sugar/protein(stewed fruit/raw cheddar/milk/honey/coffee latte)
-after breakfast/meals my hands/feet get very cold, I thought it was because I'm always wearing tanks/thin material shirts (I hate wearing clothes inside the house) my husband would always say "wear something if you're cold" but even if I do it never fixes the problem.
-I read a few people talk about night sweats -I don't get them often, but if I do it's around ovulation time. I would wake up soaking with sweat/my pillow/shirt everything!
After reading a few posts here, I think I need to look into my thyroid and hopefully get some answers. I know this is a long post and I am asking a lot of questions, I'm sos sorry in advance. I am more then happy to do the work myself and read if you guys have any links/websites that can give me some clarity on what is going with me.
I recently took my temperature, but forgive me for sounding so clueless , I don't even know what to do with it :-/ maybe suggest a few reading material to me ?
Thanks,
Raypmom
