The Mystery Of "that Little White Pill"

Recommended Posts

mamaw Community Regular

Has anyone found out what that little white pill is that the naturpath people give? I know we hashed this out before but I need the little white pill!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm having terrible brain fog and I just am not remembering anything and I get mixed up in my words and thoughts. It's scary to be that this.

They took me off my thyroid meds as rare as it may seem my thyroid started to function some what again.I'm trying to take armour but I have to take my pulse to make sure its not above 85, now it seems my pulse is alway 85 or 86 so I can't take my thyroid med. Evening it's down but when I take the amour at night I'm ready to fly and then I get no sleep.

I know the mystery pill many don't believe in but I know it made my foggy brain function better.

I have never been this confused in my life....

I don't know anything about a "little white pill", but I know some things that might help you....

I find that drinking a red bull really helps with the brain fog, post glutening. It has a lot of B vitamins and taurine and it helps you focus.

Also orange juice and zinc tablets help. I've been known to chew spearmint and cinnamon gum when I need to focus (ie: before a test)

Are you talking about Homeopathics? There are a lot of different kinds of Homeopathic remedies, for many different things, They come in little white pills, tiny white pellet balls and liquid tinctures. You can usually find them at most Health Food Stores. Newton's Labs is one company that does the liquid tinctures. I use one for allergies from a company called Boiron.

Be patient with your system while it is tring to get used to the decrease in your thyroid med. Celiac can mess with our thyroid and you should take this improvement as a sign you are healing. You sound like you may also be getting some gluten or cross contamination from somewhere, check everything and most particularly any meds you may take. Is there anything you are working with that is new or different, even something as innocent looking as white glue can be a problem. I hope you feel better soon.

Mamaw, even though the 'little white pills' all look the same, the ingredients aren't the same. There are hundreds of different homeopathic remedies. It's impossible for us to know exactly which one you have tried before that worked for you.

For instance, I use one called Sepia, which works amazingly for a stomach ache after eating something wrong. But it certainly wouldn't help you right now. You need to find out specifically which remedy you're looking for. You may need to see a homeopath or naturopath to find out.

Thanks for all the support. I haven't changed anything except for the dam thyroid pill. I was doing wonderful for almost a year on the cytomel. I know I should be happy that I'm only a handful that the thyroid started working but for me its up & down. I feel like I'm on a ferris wheel. I'm tired , b%$@#y, sad, no patience and whatever other thing you can think of I'm experiencing it.

I was so discussed today that my pulse was a tad on the high side that I just took the amour and said the hell with it. About half hour later I became my high energy self and did a hundred things including making gluten-free graham crackers. This evening I'm still feeling okay. I guess now its just the thyroid. It sure can make one feel bad.

Also I have noticed that my fibromyglia has gained strength since going off the cytomel, as well as my rosacea. Headaches also have began once more .

I'm supposed to take armour in the am & pm but I can't take it twice a day or my pulse goes sky high and I don't want to end up in the ER again.

thanks to all

The little white pill was a big topic awhile back maybe in the late fall. Iwill have to try to find out who was posting about it before. It was a hot topic......

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
