I’ve got thyroid issues and it’s a blooming nightmare at times makes me tired, definitely weight gains and sluggish most days but tend to keep active even though I am out of it by the evening I was diagnosed in my teens so definitely had this issues for a long time but you do expect it that it ain’t gonna go away it’s here with you forever x

[biddiemutter]

That's interesting, I had heard of goiters before but I was wrong about what I thought they were and I will now be more vigilant about taking my pill!

My thyroid is not over or under, i only have half of it. My doctor for 10 years would not give me any medication, they said it is working 100%. I was told to go on a diet and go to the gym. I am so tired, my joints and muscles hurts so much

[christinalaughlin]

There’s a root cause though. Most doctors just wanna give rx and not look for the root cause. Which could be because of metal, parasites, bacteria and fungus. Mine is almost in remission without any doctor help bc after 5 doctors they just wanna give me rx.

Did you know that Yolanda Gigi mother also has had part of her thyroid removed and of course it hereditary

[rovahqueen]

You're not talking about non of the diet and when you have hoshimoto's is very important you to do a diet so your thyroid won't be attacked anymore.

Many of these people have had plastic surgery. In particular, breast Implants. Putting something FOREIGN in your body will eventually set off an autoimmune response of some kind. Of course, the interplay of genetics and the environment is always a factor in determine the TYPE of autoimmune condition you get. There is information out there in medical journals on Hashimotos and BREAST IMPLANTS.
