Chronic joint pain in neck - stomach bloating.

[mpsun]

Hi all, is anyone suffering from constant joint pain? I'm on T3 (2.5 grains a day taken in 2 parts, morning and late afternoon) and it's changed my life. It's amazing. It has gotten rid of so many of my past problems, mainly headaches and exhaustion

But I have this contestant pain in the back and right side of my neck. It feel like the bones are on fire and the nerves are all trapped. I'm trying to stay off inflammatory foods but it's almost impossible as it's eggs, night shades, gluten grains dairy and soy . I feel like I'm 100 years old. I've had it for over a year now, I've tried chiropractors, Physio, massage etc noting works long term

I also have a really bloated stomach by the end of the day, but not sure if it's linked. It's so uncomfortable

Has anyone else got this and have you managed to reduce it?

I take the normal vitamins, vit C, zinc, vit D, Ferratin, K2, small amount of selenium and magnesium, maybe not enough as it's added together in a syrup

Thanks in advance.

You may have another problem. I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease, not long after an under active thyroid. It is quite common to have 2 autoimmune diseases.

Hi Mpsun,

I've been suffering with neck and upper back pain for sometime, the neck pain makes me feel quite unwell, also had joint pain in wrist ankles and gradually my knees, my muscles hurt and I've had a problem from my right shoulder coming down into my arm, I've been advised to prob need to go gluten free which does seem likes it's a prob with the thyroid, think I will tackle this soon but need to feel bit better and more motivated, which is difficult when you have so many aches and pains, I'm not on t3 only on Levo at this time, sorry I can't give any advice as I'm a new to this complaint but thought I'd share my aches and pains so you know others with same symptoms.

Best to get your vitamin levels and thyroid levels checked.
