I've been peating for about 2 months. I haven't seen any dramatic results, but I've certainly gained a good amount of weight (which I'm happy about), and feel warmer in general. It seems like my nails and teeth are doing better with the extra calcium and K2. My digestion is pretty bad and my head isn't too clear, but I feel healthier, and think I'm on the right track.
My doctor called me earlier today. He told my TSH was a little above 10. He wants me to start Synthroid right away. I'll be going in to test for antibodies to see if I have Hashimoto's. I don't have the rest of my results yet, but I'll post them ASAP.
What is a good plan of action considering thyroid supplementation? It seems like Ray and this community consider it better to take a combination of T3/T4 or even just T3 instead of only T4. Cynoplus and Cynomel seem to be highly recommended. Would it be appropriate to take one of those or a combination instead Synthroid? Should I try Synthroid first?
To be honest, I'm relieved that I'm hypothyroid. I've been stumped for the past couple years about what exactly was wrong with me. I'm glad I can finally point my finger at something specific, and that there's an actionable solution. Thank you guys for fostering such a great community.
