I’ve been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism (Graves’ disease), which has also migrated into my right eye (thyroid eye disease – TED). I have been a very healthy vegetarian for 28 years, don’t drink coffee or alcohol, have been a healthy weight for 35 years, but had a high-stress job for over 30 years. I have also suffered from significant insomnia for 40 plus years and have probably worn out my adrenals.

Although I have been working diligently to heal and doing a ton of research, along with seeing a fabulous homeopath, I haven’t seen the results that I’ve hoped for. I managed to coerce my Western medicine physician into having a standing order test for TSH every 3 months, but could only get her to order the TPO antibody test if I paid for it (which I’m doing). I have had a T3 Free and T4 Free done twice and they look okay. I’m well versed in nutrition and have really enjoyed your cookbook Amie but do have a “problem” with sugar (love it!! although I don’t eat that much in reality).

Bottom line is I’m very, very frustrated and depressed about my lack of healing. My TSH has gone up into what is considered the “normal range” (although it’s still very low) but my eye is getting worse. Almost everything ‘out there’ seems to be for hypothyroidism, which I know is by far the most common. But I still feel “left out” … as though there’s nothing to be done for hyperthyroidism. I’ve just sent out an email to a Functional Medicine specialist in my area, so hope to hear back from her soon. Any further suggestions for a hyperthyroid and TED afflicted woman who is losing hope, Amie?

Hi Amie…I too have struggled for years. Ten years ago I had breast cancer. I am a survivor. I have countless other health issues. I never smoked or drank. I do have a love affair with sugar. I just recently got tested by a functional medicine doctor. I have Hasimoto’s Throiditis. And adrenal glands are non existent. I have given up gluteen in past, haven’t eaten cow and pigs for years. Chicken and eggs was my protein. But my cholestral is at 300 and has been high for years but I refuse to take medicine. I could go on but I am anxious to add your journey to aid me in being healthier and feel better.
