I am very happy to report a significant improvement in my blood test results of last week. For many years I had high TSH values (5, 7, even 11), and it has turned out that I have thyroid antibodies. I never took Eltroxin, the only medication available through Israeli health funds, because even a 1/4 of a pill would cause me horrible intestinal cramps. Last week both TSH and free T4 values came out within range (3.35 MIU/ml and 9.16 pmol/l respectively). It's a bit hard to believe. From time to time I peep at the results form, checking if I see right, if the good news are still there.
My triglycerides too are well within range now (66 mg/dl), which already occured about 10 months ago, for the first time after many years of high triglycerides values.
I am back on meat/poultry since October 5th, and about the same time I began to exercise in the gym in the mornings.
I am truly amazed, and much beyond that I am grateful. Thank you Dr. D.
Love you all,
Yael  

I am so happy for you, Yael.
(..and where was The Wounded Healer, eh!)

Thanks eh  

Great news!

keep up the good work!

Or maybe my body has given up on me completely and decided there's no point in sending anymore TSH  

I have recently lost 2 kg though...  

Great news Yael, congratulations!

I'm looking forward for the LDL to follow.

Congratulations yael p.  Keep up the great work.

Thank you dear Lloyd, Lola, Yaman and Debra. Your support is invaluable to me.

That's a real testament to the benefits of the BTD lifestyle.
Congratulations!  Wish I had known about it before I had to have my thyroid out in  1996.
