I am very interested in holistic health and I take a formula to suport thyroid and adrenals right now but I am still on synthroid. I wondered if you are taking a glandular?<br />Thanks!

I have MS, which (in me) has caused seizures, hypothyroidism, poor temperature regulation, and many other symptoms. <br /><br />So far, there is no solution for my lack of temperature regulation. I can deal with the cold, but I get so hot (even when its cool) that I sweat profusely, cannot think, and literally feel as if I might die, it is such a severe reaction. I carry a fan with me, and it helps a lot, but I would prefer a solution to prevent the overheating.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2449193216085451722.post-62667522015474686732014-04-25T07:30:57.774-07:002014-04-25T07:30:57.774-07:00It's great that you are finding a yoga practic...It's great that you are finding a yoga practice beneficial for your symptoms. Have you heard any discussions about hot yoga and low thyroid? I was practicing Bikram hot yoga for quite awhile and I found that all the heat and sweating seemed to aggravate my symptom of feeling very cold all the time. Maybe it was because I missed the heat. BUT I have done some other reading and found some anecdotes about how all the sweating can cause stress endocrine systems of people who might might have low thyroid hormone.

So I'm...Hello and thankyou so much for sharing. So I'm not crazy! I went undiagnosed with Hashimotos for 33 years and by the time I insisted on a thyroid test my TSH was 124. The doctor was so shocked. My levels are now normal BUT the crazy hot cold situation has left me literally bed ridden. I've since been diagnosed with CFS but I know my problem is that I fight every minute of the day to regulate my temp. The difficult part is that I live in remote Central Australia where the temp is over 40C for eight months of the year, and then in winter the temp drops to below zero. In the "week" we get of spring and autumn my life changes and I emerge from literal hibernation. Is there no treatment other than taking care of myself? There is only so much I can do in such extremes of temp. My husbands work prevent us from moving. Trust me if I could I would have done it years ago. Thanks again Izolda.

My family thinks I'm crazy. I think I'm going crazy and you describe it perfectly. Not diagnosed yet but my latest TSH came back at 4.42. Unfortunately where I live normal is to 4.5-5. I will be fighting. I can't deal with this. The extremes of hot and cold and not being able to regulate and then getting ill. It isn't working.

They don't call it the Master Gland for nothing. It regulates so much. I wonder if it is possible that rather than having an underactive thyroid (not being able to regulate your temperature on the cold side of things) if you have an overactive one. <br /><br />I wish you all sorts of luck.

Let me tell you that was the worst and craziest thing that I've been through not to mention its one of the few drugs you can die from with withdraw! It took about 3 months to get right mentally and some physically but to get to the point during a seizure I fell out and hit the corner of a table and split my chin where I hit the corner of the table, I came to and lost complete control of walking straight thinking and so on now years later I'm still having major problems with my core temp. When I'm outside now or inside working, walking ,or standing even sitting I will sweat profusely and some cold but mostly heat , when everyone else is fine I'm dripping with sweat I mean raining down my face and I can not stop it in fact I keep a small fan beside my chair and turn it on and off all day . I never had a problem with heat until I had the seizures and withdraw , I'm 33 now July 2013 and really starting to worry I know it not normal for the simple facts 1) I was fine before the incident 2) no one I know has this problem and to the degree serious no pun intended.

Thanks for writing. It is tough going...Hello Laura!<br />Thanks for writing. It is tough going and it takes constant vigilance but yes, things have improved. I have to eat a lot of iodine-rich foods. I do need to do yoga every single day. And I need to keep my body moving (not high aerobic exercise which tends to cause hypothyroidics like us to lose energy rather than gain it) in some sort of activity every day as well. <br />The other big part of this is releasing stress. The more stressed I am, the tougher it is to have *any* energy. The less stressed, the more physical energy my body has to do things.<br /><br />Also, I do take L-tyrosine, evening primrose oil, and vitamin C. Despite the fact that a lot of people and literature says that we need to have a lot of vitamin B, it works the opposite for me so I don't take it. <br /><br />I also need to balance out my iron intake (can't have too much of it) as that can cause me issues as well.<br /><br />These activities make a huge difference for me. The biggest is de-stressing. The second biggest is regular (daily) yoga that is not too strenuous.<br /><br />Keep me posted on how things go for you.<br /><br />IzoldaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06609201421201254367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2449193216085451722.post-39707229490941883952013-05-28T11:25:10.666-07:002013-05-28T11:25:10.666-07:00Thanks for your inspiring story, which resembles m...Thanks for your inspiring story, which resembles mine enormously. I am also from the former Soviet Union, and also was involved in too many activities. What a coincidence!<br />Presently I am in the same state as you. It was tough to make a switch from an exciting, energetic, and vibrating life to a sluggish and debilitating existence. Our bodies know better what we need. Not allowing a rest and not replenishing it with new energy always results in such pitfalls. <br />I'd like to know if you have achieved any success in your battle since then. As for me, I am still struggling and resist to take synthetic drugs.
