    I cannot even believe that i stumbled upon your videos tonight. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism around 30 years ago and have been on Levothyroxine. Doctors have had difficult regulating my TSH levels. At one point it was over 20. Over the past few months it has gone from 0.051 to 6.7, while continuing adjusting med dosage. I have requested further testing and/referral to endocrinology, both of which they told me to wait until next TSH check. I finally had then approve further lab testing which will be done on August 18, 2023 and endocrinology cannot see me until December. When I listened I could not believe how the things you mentioned like nausea, hair loss, diarrhea, anxiety, trembling, cold intolerance, fatigue, sleep issues, brain fog, low heart rate, etc. I have a very strong family history of hypothyroidism, some having been diagnosed with Hashimoto's. I am so tired of being ignored by doctors and am so ready to find the root cause of the fluctuations and feel "normal". A huge thank you for all of the information and hopefully getting to the root cause of my decades long issues.

    I guess I am one of your rare ones. I was diagnosed with hashimotos when I was 19 years old after gain over 100 lbs in 3 months. My thyroid just shut down . At first they did not think it was hashimotos until they put me on meds and then my body just went crazy. After 20 ish years I’m somewhat stable. I still have my thyroid. Taking it one day at a time.

    I was first diagnosed with Hashimoto then 2 years later I was diagnosed with Graves then I took medicine for Graves and my primary care looked and my blood work and told me to get off everything that he feels the endocrinologist diagnosed me wrong. He said I was having a flare up of Hasimotos all along even though I took and uptake scan and my blood work should different. Now I am off all meds and my numbers are in normal range.

    I recently went to a new endocrinologist and my tsh was 4.5 with symptoms that you mentioned. Because of side effects from levothyroxine, I have not taken any meds for my thyroid for a long time. The new Dr said because my TSH is under 5 and my T3 and T4 were in the normal range I don't have to take anything anyway. And he also told me that hashimotos doesn't cause heart palpitations. I was recently diagnosed with mild sinus tachycardia that they feel is from aniexty and stress and nobody will believe me that it's from my thyroid or hormones. I've been trying to cut down and out gluten and carbs and other inflammatory foods and substances. Thank you for taking the time to read this I really appreciate it and your videos. Have a wonderful day. Oh I am also diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. With the change in my diet my a1c is now 6.1. in November it was 6.4 or 6.5🙏🙌👏👏

    I had an eye flair up and diagnosed with iritis. My eye dr said this only happens with a autoimmune disease. Went and got tested and everything was good. I've powered through symptoms assuming it was due to busy mom life and stomach issues related to dairy intolerance.
    For years I've had issues. Had a baby in March 2020(fun times) and nothing has been the same since. I again blame it on stress from a global pandemic and a new baby who still hates to sleep. A promotion with additional stress didn't help. Hair loss. Weight gain. Feeling yucky all the time.
    Now things are kind of settled and my body is crashing hard. I've gone into the dr for various issue over the last year. Tingling in my finger. Went to physical therapy for that. I thought I was having a heart attack. Ekg normal it was just stress. Went in a couple months ago because I was crying every day for no reason. Depression and gave me a pill. 3 weeks ago out of no where I broke out in full body hives. Dr did all kinds of test for allergies and tick born illness which all were normal. Blood work was scary. Showered low glucose. High wbc count. Low potassium. I finally put all my symptoms into a symptoms checker and hashimoto's was the first thing that popped up. I've been researching the heck out of it. Went back yesterday to have all the thyroid checks done and waiting on those results. But my symptoms go from hypo to hyper and I feel like I'm going nuts. Hopefully the tests have answers for me.

    Hello and thank you so much for the clarification. I was diagnosed with hashimotos this past March 2024. My thyroglobulin antibody level was 226and CRP 6.3. Doctors ran all sorts of tests to find out what my problem was and discovered this in the end. I currently have the symptoms of hypothyroidism. My doctor decided to put me on levothyroxine 50 mag even when my hormone levels were normal and I have been taking it for over 2 years now. I can't lose weight and suffer from joint pain and fatigue. My doctor doesn't want to give me immunosuppressant medication to eliminate the symptoms. Is it a good idea to prescribe immunosuppressants under these circumstances? Also, I really need to lose 40 pounds but it is just not happening.

      Great question. Not realy “Reversible” but more remission. You can’t reverse autoimmune diseases because they are partly genetic, partly environmental.

    In 2012, after many years of battling my weight, I started jogging and weight started falling off my body. I thought it was because of the jogging, low carb diet. It just melted away. Then in 2017 it slowly started to creep up. I had problems for years, not being able to swallow, fatigue, sleeping long hours. Blood test, after blood test showed nothing. BUT, they only checked my TSH. Finally in 2019 I demanded my doctor take me seriously, and I think only due to my constant nagging, he sent me in for a thyroid ultra sound. I had two nodules on my thyroid, one was quite large. They put me on Methmazole, which tore apart my stomach, but brought my T-4 & T3 into "normal range". I've went from 155 to 175 and no matter what I do, I can not keep the weight off. I'm in a flare up now. Each flare up takes longer, and longer to get threw. Then when they stop, I slowly start to feel better and the weight melts back off. Until the next time. The nodules on my thyroid went from quite large to very small. It's all a hit and miss, vicious cycle. Thank you for your video. Oh I forgot to add, I've lost 75% of the hair on my body, when I'm in a flair up, the hair that is left on my head, falls out and it doesn't come back. I'm experiencing very dry itching skin as well. I'm getting older and I believe it's causing other issues as well.

I just recently asked the doctor to test me for hashimotos, T3, reverse T3, Lupus, and celiac. I also just had a thyroidectomy on the right (which had a golf ball size nodule). As I recover from surgery and wait for my test results, I am trying to adjust my diet according to the research that I can find. This has been very confusing. Besides salt, what e!se do you recommend...non-dairy? Gluten-free? Paleo? Soy-free?

      Glutenfree, dairy free, soy free, sugar free, non alcohol is the advice where I live and then do this via elimination provocation diet which means during 4 weeks do not take gluten, than test a little bit gluten be ware in what products beside bread, toast, crackers, cookies, pie it also is in some sort of soups, crouton, biscuits, spagethi, nacaroni etc etc saus....then part 2 for 4 weeks no diary then test it etc etc and the rest so you can feel in your belly, gut and energy what makes the difference. Good luck, Yvonne

      Start an anti-inflammatory diet and if possible work with a functional medicine practitioner. They will get you on the right path. We focus more on searching for root cause and how to help the body heal rather than prescriptions to treat symptoms. Medications are bandaids.

    Hi, I know it's probaly too late to get a reply on this video as it's a year old. I saw this, then read your article about iodine. I have hashimotos, I had been taking a thyroid supplement, with iodine, I also eat a lot of nori seaweed, 4+ sheets a day. So I'm thinking I will stop the supplement, do I also need to stop eating seaweed? Many thanks, Helen :-)

    I have Hashimoto's. My symptoms never disappear. Everyday, I feel as if someone has beaten me with a bat and it's the morning after. I feel like a cripple. I tried 4 or 5 different medications, but I had severe side effects from them all. I was so worried about not being on any medication, but after watching this video, maybe it's a blessing? I have absolutely no quality of life. So, my question to you, Doc, is, what can be done for this debilitating disease? I am seriously losing all hope.

    Do people with Hashimoto's disease sweat mostly on the head? I have most of the symptoms and was diagnosed about 10 years ago, my test was 95 and in Canada they do nothing but put u on Synthroid. I feel like i have a flu all the time with achey joints. My first diagnosis was RH at the age of 31. Seems like I'm always tired no matter how much sleep i get, and exercise makes me feel sick!

      Hi, also test if there is anything ackward with your white bloodcells, that could be the case. I have Hashimoto but the laboratoria found something different with the white bloodcells. Monoklonale B lymfocytose is it called. I have head sweatting at night and sometimes in the evening and terribly tired as well. I am 69 years. My theroid gland almost disappeared and has scars.

    I’ve been diagnoses with PCOS/ADHD/Depression. But I’m sensitive to heat and sweat a lot. I have constant body aches and fatigue. I experience nausea and vomiting almost daily. I always crave salt gluten and sugar no matter how much I eat of anything else. My hormones are proven to be imbalanced and unaffected by metformin spironolactone and vitamins . My vitamin d is always low. I gain and lose weight rapidly in large amounts ranging 20-50 lbs in under 6 months with no lifestyle or diet changes. The side effects of autoimmune disorders are occurring frequently amongst my immediate family. But I have it the worst and I feel my doctors aren’t listening to me. How would you suggest I go about obtaining the proper testing to rule out hashimotos or any other auto immune disease?

    • @khadijahtaylor-de4ey
      @khadijahtaylor-de4ey 4 месяца назад

      To clarify, I’ve had alot of chronic symptoms for a long time that I’ve just recently learned are associated with hashimotos, Addisons, celiac and IBD . Almost lupus but I never get face rashes but bad chest and stomach/leg rashes and eczema. That seems to come and go seasonally or due to irritation. I also have asthma that is only induced by exercise and I get very tired very quickly with mid exercise. I can’t breathe and I’m drenched in sweat doing yoga. I am overweight but I’m 215 5’8. And I know people way larger than me who don’t experience life the way I do. My immediate family has the accumulate: diabetes , neurodivergent disorders, pcos, dyslexia, very bad allergies (like grass, dust, cats, dogs) , cancer, strokes, amputations etc. but no autoimmune disease diagnosis Or family history. And I need help . Please any advice .

    I was diagnosed with hashimoto’s in 2021. I have been experiencing hyperthyroidism symptoms since 2019. I just recently start gaining weight and I still have hyperthyroidism symptoms. My labs still have been coming back high. I sweat a lot to the point it has been causing issues at work, and I feel nervous all the time for no reason. I have been to multiple endocrinologists they always want to play the wait and watch game. I feel as if I’m not being treated.
