Five years ago I was diagnosed with Graves disease. My conventional doctor recommended a radioactive iodine treatment that would most probably destroy most if not all of my thyroid function. This suggestion not only went against my personal health values – it terrified me.
I have spent the past five years searching for a way to control my thyroid function naturally, with occasional pharmaceutical support.
One day, in a fit of frustration, I posted something of my fight on this blog. That post quickly rose to the top of my “most viewed” list, so I decided to share more. Here is my story. I’ll hope you’ll share yours. Please leave a comment on one of the below posts or email me at mowenackie@hotmail.com.
Part III – Thank You, Dr. Graves
Thank you for being so brave and open. I recently found out I have Grave’s Disease and am encouraged to see so many people who are fighting the fight by doing research and asking the unasked questions. I am blogging to share my experience. Thankk you for sharing yours.
