I had my TSH checked 1 years ago which was 1.1 mU/L (0.35 – 4.94) (bracket is the range). This was all I could get out of my Doctor on the NHS. Of courseI've looked at private testing, but with travel costs it will be at least £200. Reflecting on my state of well-being one year ago, i definitely don't feel like I'm a declining old man and I think that I have made some progress. (adding carbs helped a LOT at the beginning, since I was 2.5 years Paleo on less than 80g per day)
I did supplement with raw thyroid last year, but I also continued to under-eat so it was pointless. I also measure my pulse and temp for a few weeks last year:
Temp Pulse
25/09/13 36.2 78
26/09/13 36.4 63
27/09/13 36.2 70
28/09/13 36.5 73
29/09/13 missed missed
30/09/13 35.6 70
01/10/13 36.6 74
02/10/13 missed missed
03.10/13 36.8 67
04/10/13 36.8 75
05/10/13 36.8 70
08/10/13 36.6 71
I've just taken my temp (before eating) and it's 36.5C. Still low and my feet are on this occasion very cold. (I also get cold feet after eating rice krispies which is very odd).
I use to add sugar to my milk but for me it ruins the taste (raw milk is delicious as it it). I eat a few tablespoons of honey a day when I have watermelon or coffee. Yesterday I actually ate 3,000 calories! A lot of that was from candy and cereal, Macros where: 127g fat (too much), 320g carbohydrates and 105g protein. I ate beef and tuna yesterday which is why the protein is higher than normal.
I think making shepherd's pie will work for me, I seem to digest it well after using a slow cooker (crock pot) and that really warms me up!
