ok I got my labs back and I found a doc that should be good and affordable via STTM Stop The Thyroid Madness community. it's a well known book and website. so, my free t3 is low, my free t4 is very low, my cortisol is low which indicates secondary low thyroid and a pituitary problem. well duhhh, I've known/felt that for years. my bio identical hormones aren't off too much (no ovaries) but will also need adjusting. I'll call first thing tomorrow and I think there is hope. maybe then all the hard work will pay off and my fat will start to melt. I can't tell you how sad it can be to see peeps celebrating great weight loss and I'm stuck and even eating better and less. hormones will stall ya big time. ok I'll report back when I know more.

Jen, I know what that’s like... you got this, and it’s a little harder for us dealing with multiple health issues, this is one of many I actually relate too. I know stress beyond stress. Don’t give up.💕

Hugs Jen. Thyroid issues are horrible. I'm glad you found a good doctor. That's half the battle

I'm thinking about you, Jen, and hoping your new doctor helps you maneuver through your health issues so you can meet your goals! Best wishes to you.

Could you say something more about the natural thyroid. I haven't been tested for a couple of years and would love to be off it. I do have a doctors appointment soon.

Alix why would you want to stop taking your thyroid medicine? That something you will probably have to take forever. I'm not doing a natural thyroid treatment, I am taking something called Nature-Throid. go to the stop the thyroid madness website and read , it will help you a lot to understand what the level should be on your lab work and what they should be testing for , and what most doctors don't do.
