In 2012, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. I had heard of this disease through my education, but had not studied it to the point of full understanding. After receiving the diagnosis, the studying began and today, my Brain-Heart-Gut Connection gets it! Somedays, the connection is broken and I generally do not feel well. The symptoms include aches and pains (almost flu-like), tiredness, lack of focus, a general lack of energy, difficulty in losing weight and occasional malaise. Other days, I see the light and believe that this tunnel shall end. I have been told that I will always have the antibodies that detect that Hashimoto's is present. I do not choose to believe this to be true and continue to provide my body with the nutrition, water, supplements, breathing techniques and care that it needs. Since 2012, the Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPO) have reduced from >1000 to 747 (normal is <= 9) and the Thyroglobulin Antibodies have reduced from 290 to 20 (normal is <=1). Yes, they are still present, but are heading in the right direction.
