I was reading that the thyroid may have something to do with the cause of Fibromyalgia. I have been diagnosed with Hashimoto's Thiroditis (sp.?) but the Dr. has not been treating me with any medication for it. When looking at my bloodwork all the thyroid levels look to be within the normal range.
The Dr. recommended I take one 3 mg/. iodine tablet daily. Also, I heard that often the thyroid panel does not really pick up all thyroid deficiencies. A low body temperature is a predictor of thyroid as well as adrenal system problems. My body temp is always below normal - sometimes even 96. I went to the health food store to get more iodine and they only sold kelp. I originally got the tablets from my Dr. Is there a difference between taking the iodine or kelp? Is there a connection between thryroid and / or adrenal function and fibromyalgia. Anyone know anything about this? I am sure Mrs. D. does. Thanks, Sydney |
