Patient discussion about hypo.

Q. Has anyone tried natural hormones for hypo-thyroidism or fibromyalgia? I am on the low normal range for hypo-thyroidism (do not take meds for) and was diagnosed years ago with fibromyalgia. I take Ultram for the pain which also helps my fatigue factor but I still feel so sluggish sometimes and just want to sleep. I'm on an anti-depressant as it is. I've been hearing more about natural hormone therapy for these conditions and was wondering if anyone out there has tried this.

A. The Ultram and the anti-depressants do that and as for the natural hormone treatments they don't really work. The Gulf War that gave me hypo-thyroid and hypo-prolactimia which is the Pituitary Gland acting up. On top of the fibro,fatique,pain and recovering from arsenic poison I was put on hormone treatments and it made things worse. I blew up like a balloon, I was still tired and it never corrected the problem with my glands. I tried everything out there and I wasn't getting any better until now. A friend of mine told me of this product called Vitalitea and that it could help me.I was desperate to get my health back and boy did I. Go to Ai3global.com/greentea and click on product and wellness and read it. Check out the www on the healing properties of quality green tea and not the stuff you by at the local store. My fatique, and chronic pain is gone. My Fibromyalgia is so, so mild. I do fun things again after 7 year of suffering. You won't regret it. It is all natural.
