Thyroid Condition Dilemma!?
I am 19 years old, without insurance, broke and trying my damnedest to get my duration back in order. I own always had a weight problem, but I hold always been an unnaturally healthy eater and incredibly busy person. I have my moments, yes, but my greatest weakness is, simply, pure cocoa. That's it. I don't resembling cakes or pastries or candies, I never have. Just pure cocoa (I know, gross, right?) and mango -my mouth is watering just thinking almost it!
I'm currently severely overweight, despite going to the gym all the time and eating all my fruits and veggies. It have been suggested to me to go on a diet. But I can't. Diets have lunchtime plans and I'm allergic to so many things it'd be such a waste to go on a diet.
I'm Vegan, and up to that time anyone gets on my case about it, I'm allergic to dairy, meat, eggs, honey, shellfish, sea fish, leather, wool, the cow itself and all bugs. I was genetically made, as it seems, to be Vegan. Also, I hold a high sensitivity to gluten, yeast and anything wheat derived. Its hard enough keeping up near all of this, but I do, somehow.
But now the thyroid. Only recently did I find out just about it, before my insurance was gone (my dad passed away recently and he be my source of insurance), but I never got the chance to get medication (we didn't own enough money at the time) and I, now, have neither insurance nor money.
I'm exhausted, wearing parkas within summer, getting bigger, and so on and so forth. It is unbearable, I don't feel like myself and it lately seems to be getting worse.
Are there natural ways to tend to this?

Ignore the Acai berry advice. Go to the local clinic and get your TSH level checked. Offer to recompense your doctor installments - try $10/month. There is no "superfood" or shortcut. If you have thyroid disease get it treated - if not you'll own the peace of mind to try a good diet. Good luck.
You mentioned your sensitivity to gluten, and there's a strong correlation between thyroid issues and gluten. You didn't specify whether you refrained from ingesting any and all gluten products. If you still eat them, I would suggest adjectives them out completely.
You're going to have to go to the emergency room of your city hospital. By decree, they must treat you. You will see a doctor who can have your thyroid levels analyzed and prescribe meds.
Check out the Walmart meds that they sell for just $4 for 30 days worth. It will help the doctor prescribe the least expensive medication that still treats your condition.
As for diet, ask around and see if you can find a friend with the booklets and info from Weight Watchers. It really works and is the easiest plan to alter to a vegan or allergy type eating regimen.
Good luck to you!! : / Source(s): http://www.walmart.com/4prescriptions
You can't combat this on your own, you will need medication, did you find out if you were underneath or over active, if your over you will need carbimazole or under you will obligation thyroxine, you must see a G.P. I am underactive & my medication is free for life, but i do live in the U.K. hope you get sorted soon, hold you no family at all that can help, an aunt-uncle-gran-grandad,, filch care.
Title 42 of federal imperative states that they must treat you in an emergency room IF you are in imminent threat of dying, or giving birth to a toddler...
So if you go to an emergency room, you will simply end up with a larger bill than going to a clinic....
Make an appointment next to a clinic (I don't know about where you live, but where I am we own clinics that are 29 bucks a visit), have your doctor fax your test results to the clinic, and have them write you a script. Most medication for thyroid conditions are only a few dollars per month, even without insurance....
And since you have so abundant allergies to critters, have them write the script for synthroid -that's the artificial one that isn't made from pork.
There isn't anything natural that is going to budge that condition...
But I do hope you find a path to resolve it... Source(s): Good Luck
