Does anyone have Hashimoto’s Disease?
Your weight will normalize once your thyroid hormone gets under control, it takes about a month for the medication to build up in your blood. There are some side affects but it differs from person to person. You can be predisposed to an autoimmune diseases, especially, if it runs in your family. However, autoimmune diseases can show up even when there is no family history. Thyroid disease is caused by your adrenals getting burned out, sometimes due to stress, illness, chemicals in our environment. I would also have some accupunture done, this will help alleviate some of your body complains, it helped me a lot. My hypothyroidism first showed up during my pregnancy, I was borderline. I was fine for 10 years & then it returned, I’ve been on Levothryrox 50mcg for 4 years without any side affects. Dietary changes will help with your symptoms, I would avoid fluoride, soy, coniferous vegetables which all interfere with Thyroid absorption.
