    Consider having adrenal function tested as well. It can cause similar symptoms sometimes.

    Are you living in the dorms? If so, then you need to talk with the dietician that is in charge of the campus meal plans and special needs food. There IS stuff on campus you can have, or they will add something. If you live off campus and have a kitchen at home make a bunch of food on the weekends. Fruit and yogurt are good too. Buy a loaf of bread...

    I have a feeling when I travel it's going to be lots of rice and bean noodles and sauce. And salads with lunchmeat. And sushi. I can never eat too much sushi (I might rescend that statement after 3 months in Honolulu, but we will see). Did you know that M&M mini containers are fairly waterproof? I bought a 24 pack at Sam's club so I can carry...

    I forgot to mention that for my IgG, the range was <9 for normal.

    I have never understood why everyone is so excited about getting a biopsy. Functional changes are more sensitive than pathological ones. You know your son better than your doctor does, and you are just paying the MD for his professional opinion and access to tests and drugs the government has made otherwise unavailable to you. Since you don't need the...

    Not a server, but after I explained it to my parents for over an hour, my mother asked if I could just skip bread and pasta and get better, just a little slower! I strongly suspect that she would benefit from a gluten free diet, but just doesn't feel like going through the trouble. I was over there and the only "safe" stuff I could find was canned fruit...

    When I'm late for work, I have whey protein powder and a banana for breakfast. I found mine in with the other body builder type supplements at wally world (although I bought IronTek cookies and cream from vitaglo this time, we'll see how that goes but the company says it is gluten free and I love cookie flavor). The container has a ripped male torso on...

    Last May my T4 was barely hanging onto the normal range and my TSH was slightly elevated. I couldn't get any work done and was gaining weight while doing over 100 miles a week on the bicycle! My mother has had thyroid problems for decades, so I insisted that I get Armour and nothing else. When the Dr. responded to be offering to send articles saying that...

    Having worked for a veterinarian and gone to a vet continuing ed course with the vet that runs THE canine bloodbank (Dr. Jean Dodds, maybe one day I can spend a summer working there), I can say that I'd rather get a MLV over a killed vaccine any day. MLVs carry an ever so slightly increased risk of infection, but they do not contain adjuvants. MLV creates...

    There's not a direct connection, but when you have a screwed up immune system you usually have more than one problem. I'm one of the few that are allergic to chrome as well. I even react to cheap sterling that's been made on the same machines as nickel containing metals. I have to order wire from one of a very few pro jewler's supplies that have a dedicated...
