I hope you are in a better place now.

I understand completely what you are going through. I am 34. I have had Hashimoto’s, likely since at least I was 16, when I was first diagnosed with hypothyroidism.

This past year had been the worse. It started pretty well. I seemed to be doing better. I thought my thyroid was working better.

Anyway, but when I learned I was pregnant and that I was much under-dosed on my thyroid… well… increasing my dose to a better level, while my dose needs were rapidly increasing, and being pregnant with twins. I was severely under dosed on my thyroid meds for months and spent all of those days wishing I was dead. I was severely tired and had terrible insomnia.

Things that helped me … having my t4 at 1.2, taking liver powder (Radiant Life), and zinc (mega-foods). A trial of t3 I think also helped boost some my metabolic processes.

In the end… I am still very tired and feel like I am 80. My twins were born at 38 weeks, by induction, both being over 7 lbs. They were born very healthy.

For me, the worst of the trials seem to pass. I still am hopeful to find more optimal dosing.. possibly including things other than t4.

God bless.
