I have and that is what my life has been like on and off for the last 4 years. I believe I had underactive thyroid from a young age as I slept a lot and could sleep anywhere. As age crept up on me and menopause arrived the situation got worse. I finally managed to get my GP to prescribe syn-thyroid 5 years ago, which I don’t think made any difference. Some days I thought I felt better, however that was short lived. I wondered if I was just being hopeful.
Rachael was recommended to me by my physio. This was my last hope of finding a solution. I had seen many Natural Therapist and spent thousands of $ over the years with little or no change. I met Rachael November 2016, and this is where my journey began. Firstly supplements were looked at and recommended and also a change to a Keto way of eating, LCHF. Slowly I started to feel better, but still not 100%.
I become quite ill in December 2016 with tonsillitis, and my energy levels were on the decline until I finally pulled finger and saw Rachael again May 2017 (I’m a slow learner) the worsts part of all this is the brain fog, so rational thinking just goes out the door. At this point I was still harbouring the virus I contracted in December 2016, so priority was to get rid of that, which we managed to do using supplements. Visited Racheal again in September to confirm that the virus was out of my system but the Thyroid was still not functioning very well.
By this stage my weight had soared and I was carrying an excess of 10 kg. Racheal suggested we have one last go at the syn-thyroid medication proscribed by my GP. Upped the dosage to trial for two months. No change at all. Met again with Rachael in November where she confirmed that the Syn- thyroid medication wasn’t working. I’d been taking this medication for 5 years with no positive results. By this point one starts to question ones mental state, the brain fog was turning my days in to fuzzy days, and the best part of my day was when I could sleep.
This is when my life changed; Rachael asked me if I would be keen to try a Raw Thyroid supplement which you don’t need a GP script for. Raw Thyroid is made up of toxin-free lyophilised glands from animals. What a winner, no word of a lie, within 48 hours I was bouncing! I could not believe how awesome I felt. I could not remember if at all, when I last felt this good. I did come crashing down a week later and was very emotional, however this was only because I was so scared that this feeling was not going to last, how could it? Well let me tell you, it has. I’m going through a tough time now which before Raw Thyroid would have knocked me for 6, oh no not this time; I am focused and still have the energy levels up, no brain fog to fuzz my decision.
I spoke to my GP about trying Raw Thyroid years ago and she told me it wouldn’t work, I took her word for it, silly me!
My recommendation to anyone who is in the same boat as me and has a very underactive Thyroid and nothing is working! Give Raw Thyroid a going, you won’t regret it!
Without Rachael’s determination goodness only knows where I would be today, I owe my life to Rachael, a woman who believes so deeply in what she does and to whom I am truly grateful and thankful. So glad I found this wonder woman.
