Dr Skinner, Hashimotos AND Adrenal problems

I’m rewriting my last post ..re wording....

IM CALLING ANY EX PATIENTS OF DR SKINNER, WHO HAD HASHIMOTOS AND ADRENAL PROBLEMS, AND WERE ALSO ON NDT.

Can anyone give me clues as to how Dr Skinner advised treatment ? Anyone with these conditions will understand the great difficulties in trying to raise the thyroid dose to a suitable level..... and stay there....and the diffficulties in treating exhausted adrenals.

I’m wondering if there were some patterns to his treatment of these things...

(understanding people are different and things would be tailored to the individual. ...)

But he may well have had certain principles and ideas which he applied to most people in these circumstances.

I will be incredibly grateful to any information!

Many thanks.

I did not see Dr Skinner.I saw Dr Peatfield.There is advice in his book, ‘Your Thyroid and how to keep it Healthy’.He May be available to treat patients again, after an illness.He is in Crawley.

I saw Dr S for a few years. I knew nothing of Hashimoto's or adrenal problems and neither subject ever came up. With hindsight I feel they were not that important to him.
