I fought for years to be diagnosed with thyroid issues. I was labelled a hypochondriac. I tried to commit suicide several times and was hospitalised, I had all the symptoms you talk about. I was in such pain and only in my 20s, which was not right. I didn't want to get out of bed. I eventually researched this myself and went to see a doctor who was 'alternative'. In fact, he had warnings from the BMA. He concluded that my issue was thyroid-related. I had nodules on my thyroid as well. When I started the thyroxine it was like a switch was turned on. I was later also diagnosed with SLE and have just recently been going through a horrific menopause. I was not initially allowed to go on HRT due to having 'antiphospholipid syndrome'. It's been a roller coaster. My doctors are still playing with my thyroxine levels. Seems I do not absorb any hormones well. Your work is SO important and I am so grateful to you for sharing all this information.

Agree . Totally in the dark ages. Suffered for several years with TSh of 4.2 and general md said it was within range. 😢My t3 was barely there. Taking NP thyroid and feeling so much better!!

[@user-ug8ey8xu7g]

I can't give this enough thumbs up!!😄Thank you SO much for the straight talk!!!

Dr. Tyna - I’m sooooooo glad you’re back on KZbin!! I recently started eating an animal based diet (lots of fat and red meat), and it seems to be transforming a few major issues, including low thyroid symptoms, anxiety, and bad digestion. Hope to hear more of your thoughts on this topic in terms of animal based foods vs other.

You’re a great doctor ! Thanks for all this information!

[@Lifeforcelotus]

Wow! I was diagnosed with hashimotos thyroiditis and my tsh is a 1.9 I've had all kinds of issues for the last few years I'm looking for a functional doctor near me

[@CharleneKraemer-j9v]

Does high cholesterol get affected by my hypothyroidism??

[@brendaalder1549]

Well could be an underlying cause of both conditions. Biotoxin such as Mold exposure, bacteria, Lyme and or Covid

[@melindasieber3735]

Really like your viewpoints. You do have to pay somebody if you want help .

Hi Dr Moore, thanks for this informative video. I'm curious about something-I too drank, smoked and ate badly as a young woman, I do have hashi's but what interests me is all my mates were in the same boat but none of them got hashi's-would that be luck of the draw or would something stress/trauma related in my life have kickstarted auto-immune problems? We all have some stress but I suppose not all have trauma as such;) Thanks

[@wheathusk2499]

Stress is 100% the cause of hashimotos precipitation and genetics as well! Even if u have genetic predisposition it can only occur of u go through a period of extreme emotional and mental stress with a feeling of insecurity chaos and hopelessness

[@tanjamavric2974]

@@wheathusk2499 Certainly plausible, ta

Good analogy with the shoe sizes - that’s exactly what’s going on! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been to the doctors with hypothyroid symptoms with rising TSH levels now at 4.4, still deemed “normal” and I just get gaslighted all the time. 29:15
