After running out of thyroid medication for five weeks, the speaker felt fine, slept normally, and had no fatigue. Labs showed their thyroid hormone levels were smack in the middle of the normal range. A functional medicine practitioner said no refill was needed.
So to make a long story short, by the time I saw my functional doctor practitioner, um, and by the time I had my labs done and got the results back, it had been 5 to 5 and a half weeks later from when my medicine ran out. Wow. So I just remember thinking, like, 2 weeks in, I remember thinking, you know, I think I feel okay. Like, how did I sleep last night? I think I slept okay. I think I'm feeling okay. So I was starting to see the 3rd and 4th week, you know, I haven't crashed yet. I don't feel like I have to take a nap every day and stay in bed. So it was just really interesting. And I was shocked. I kept telling Ashley, honey, I'm not having any symptoms. Like, I actually feel really good. So it was like 5, 5 and a half weeks Later, and I didn't even have— I had my labs drawn and my— I looked at my count for my— I don't know all the technical terms, medical terms, but I looked at my labs for my thyroid and it was, it was like right in the middle where the normal was and just a tad next to it. So it was just like I looked at it and I was like, That's like the normal line. And I'm thinking, I mean, could I, could I not need it anymore? I was so excited because I wanted for so many years to get off this medicine. I didn't want to have to be reliant upon it. So anyway, he was like, you don't need any. You don't need a refill.
What if your own body could switch on regenerative peptides already inside you?
