Have i got hashimotos

[DAFTVADER]

Hi everyone my name is Dave am 74 years young. For many years now I have been plagued by a variety of puzzling symptoms. At last myself and the Doctors have worked it out.

I have Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy, Type2 Diabetes, Type 2 Bipolar syndrome,

Sleep apnoe and cyclic depression (cyclothymia), And as yet undiagnosed Hashimotos Thyroiditus.

I am taking various meds for these ailments which is helping. As regards the Hashimotos I have done extensive research on this and a few years ago my Basal temperatures were fluctuating wildly from just below normal to very much below normal, unfortunately I have lost the readings.I have also been exhibiting all the physical and mental symtoms of this desease. At one point I bought a course of dessicated porcine extract and that did seem to help. Just after this my GP contacted me to tell me that my thyroid levels were now normal so I came off the pills About a year ago my symptoms flared up again so my GP referred me to a consultant. He thoroughly eamined me and did multiple tests. Th upshot pof this is that I have a letter stating that"MR BURROWS HAD A THYROID IMBALANCE BUT IT IS NOW IN REMISSION), That is what can happen with Hashis it goes into remission for an unspecified period and then BANG your thyroid fails.

Help, before this happens can someone please inform me where I can purchase NDT.

Many thanks in anticipation, Dave B

Mrs Omniscient, who is up on these things, says go over to the thyroid UK forum on health unlocked, and ask the same question.
