I took a blood test a few days ago after taking the thyroid meds for almost 3 weeks. The test is to determine if the meds affected my blood count or not. Thank God everything is well when I saw the doctor today. Also, the thyroid stimulating hormone level has gone down. Good news 🙂 However, the level is still not low enough. Therefore, the doctor has advised me to take more tablets. I was taking 8 tablets a day and now I have to take 10. Holy Moly!!! She said it is better that I take more so that I can get rid of the thyroid asap. Luckily, the tablets are tiny. If not, I think I would gag each time I take them. Hope that I will be free of thyroid very soon 🙂
My thyroid meds – Carbimazole
The little tablets
Take good care of yourself ya, Barb! Drink plenty of water to flush out all the bad bad toxins!!!!! Wish you well 🙂
hope you get well soonest
hope u get well soon.
I know quite a lot of alternative ways to treat the symptoms of thyroid. Drink more chrysanthemum tea. Don’t boil it. Add rock sugar and just pour in hot water like you are preparing tea. About 40 flowers into 250ml of water. Must have sugar to help to withdraw the good properties in it.
Change your toothpaste to non fluoride type. And, you are welcome to my blog. http://everydayhealy.com. And, type the word thyroid in the search column on top. Hopefully, things that I share might help. 😛

Hi, first timer here. Get well soon.
I was diagnosed with thyroid when I was 15 and it took me 4 years to get rid of it.
I started off with 12 neomecarzole tablets to 8,6,2,1 and 1/2.I’m finally off it.
