if you cant afford to go to doc or get meds for your thyroid i would advise you start taking kelp...........u can die from not taking your thyroid meds your thyroid affects every cell in your body.......also i would look into adding a zinc supplement there is a link with that and thyroid disorders and hair loss

that is great for the great lakes, however, all the extra snow needs to be removed from areas that it will most likely cause a lot of damage or flooding if it all melts quickly............I know my yard is going to be a mess this spring..............it is usually a bit muddy after the snow melts however with the amount of…

I take xr........I find that having to take it twice a day I sometimes would forget as I couldnt take with thyroid meds (thyroid meds have to be taken by themself on a empty stomach

I was on metformin 500mg and my repro endo told me that for a women with PCOS that is way to low of a dose. He increased my dose to 2000mg a day. Also have you had your thyroid tested? if so what is your TSH at? If not asked to have it tested.

with my husband being in the hospital this makes the snow really hard for me.....the road conditions are bad making (four foot drifts in some places with intermittent whiteouts) and just makes me think ok I have had enough snow to last me the rest of winter it can stop now

[/quote] Personally my thyroid is in perfect range, but I have heard that hypothyroidism is really common in women with PCOS. Actually my doc was really surprised my thyroid was fine because I had ALL the symptoms. [/quote] I did a lot of research into the testing of thyroid and learned a great deal. First most labs are…

so I have a number of issues besides PCOS that contribute to feeling tried all the time: PCOS Low Iron Low vit B12 Low vit D hypothyroidism You may want to see if you are having issues in other areas of your body including low vit and minerals. These things can cause you to feel tired. Before I started taking meds and or…

wow I am going to sound really bad compared to ya all, however, I would be happy to be able to walk into almost any store and find something that fits so I would love to be in like a 14/16

there are many factors to take into consideration when comparing scales first how you stand on a scale, what you where, if you ate or drank anything, different manufactures, and lastly not every scale weighs the same .......my dr's scale is 5 lbs less than my scale where as when my husband goes to the va he usually goes to…

Barryton?

my dr refused to give me that and stated that it didn't work well.....told me there wasn't much besides electrolysis or laser hair removal however even that doesn't work well either for PCOS due to hormone issues

Thanks everyone, I am sorry if I sound like I am being a broken record but we live far from family and sometimes feel isolated and with everything going on it can be very hard

We have had her since she was a puppy for 12 , she would have been 13 this feb. This is going to be really hard on my husband as this was his…

I like snow for Christmas but after that I could do with out it and the freezing rain. Makes it hard to get to the hospital and see my husband couldn't visit at all on sunday due to all the snow and almost didn't get to go yesterday due to how long it took to dig out the driveway. Today black ice and snow drifts…
