I don't recall if I'd mentioned that I was trying out taking thyroid and pituitary glandulars, but yeah.
Anyways, today, I decided to ramp up the thyroid. I'm leaving pituitary at the regular suggested level.
The reason I'm doing this is because one or the other or both of these DO seem to be helping! Not enough... but...
And I've done a self-diagnostic for hypo-thyroid and I have A LOT of indications for it. Not all. And some are quite opposite (my fast heart rate seems to completely contradict it, but who knows.)
So I'm figuring, before I go out and try to get a hold of some synthroid or something, I'll try the thyroxine-free glandular approach first. If it cures me without messing about with a potentially fatally dangerous hormone, great. If all it does is help relieve the worst of it for the time being until I can get a hold of proper medical treatment, I suppose that'll have to do. Cuz even though I am aware of channels that I can get lab-grade and medical thyroxine through, I'm not at all interested in experimenting with THAT one on my own. Far too risky.
