Suppliments?

[jcarlton76]

Hello again. I was wondering what supplements people take? Im hypothyroid just found out i have RA and i have several other annoying autoimmune things going on. I just started drinking magnesium potassium mix. I asked this question on my fb support group and the only real answers i get are from people selling. Maybe they sell cuz the supplement worked wonders, idk. I dont have a lot of money to take chances on things i dont need. What do you guys take for exhaustion, joint and muscle pain?

Vitamin and mineral supplements are only going to help you if you need to take them. More is never better. You need to get your vit D, vit B12, folate and ferritin tested, and supplement according to the results, with co-factors. It's a very bad idea to take most things without testing first.

As you have several autoimmune decisions, I would ask to be referred to an Endocrinologist as quite a number of members have more than one autoimmune condition. An Endo can diagnose if you have a Polyglandular Autoimmune Disease.

I have been diagnosed with Polyglandula Autoimmune Disease No3. several months ago.
