I just got an email link to this article. Since I know little about thyroid issues, was wondering what astroman and other thyroid knowledgeable folks think of this. Is this accurate information?

The article looks well laid out and I wanted to bookmark it if it’s valid info.

Thats pretty much the basics of it. At least they emphasis TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) is a pituitary signal, not a "fuel" hormone at all.

Symptom list can be much more than stated here though, overlapping almost all lyme symptoms too. Symptoms will vary per individual, meaning some will not be present at all.

Whats not mentioned is care of autoimmune conditions should one have high antibodies. If I knew that 20 years ago, Id be in much better shape thyroid wise.

Dr Isabell (something) is prob the best online known thyroid guru. She might not be a Dr, I think shes a pharmacist

Thx so much, astroman!!

Are referring here to the food sensitivity testing you did and how eliminating those responsive foods altered your autoimmune antibodies?

I didn’t get the antibodies tested - but not necessary because my TSH, FT3 and FT4 were all good.

The tests have been repeated a few years later.
