I am hypothyroid.

I definately have more flare ups on days when I cheat and eat too many carbs.

Have you considered natural hormone vs the synthetic??? A great wealth of info is at www.stopthethyroidmadness.com

I am on perscription nature-throid and not only is my tsh better but free T3 and T4 numbers are good too, which is something synthetics sometimes do not help.

thank you stacy 2012.
No, I do not know much about the nature-troid. Natural hormone? I have taken Synthroyd for years.
I am not a diabetic eighter, have no symptoms of it, and have always had normal Fasting glucose, when ever tested routinly.

but now I hear from you and others, that it is a good idea to monitor the glucose even for non diabetics due to the nerve effects in neuropathy.

So thanks .
I did check out the link you posted.
