Memory Loss, Fatigue, and Misdiagnosed Hypothyroidism

MEMORY LOSS, FATIGUE & MISDIAGNOSED HYPOTHYROIDISM.
 
I have been down so many rabbit holes and misdiagnosis trying to figure out what was wrong with me.😢Thyroid, adrenal fatigue, out of whack hormones, cognitive repair … you name it, I have been down that path. You know, Google and all. I made the dietary changes. I cut out sugar, dairy, gluten and white carbs. I went Paleo. Then Keto with an emphasis on plant based fats. I even started my day with MCT coffee. None of which helped me feel better. I still couldn’t remember anything or think straight.
 
Comprehensive blood test panels over the years showed slightly elevated thyroid (around 2.2 TSH) levels, along with low testosterone levels. I tried 2 different thyroid medications that actually made my symptoms worse and eventually threw my body into hyperthyroidism. The medication made me feel as though there was a low vibrating ringing sensation in my head and behind my eyes. Then extreme insomnia set in. 😳 The lack of sleep turned into bouts of extreme anxiety and depression for the first time ever in my life and I didn’t want to leave the house. Next thing I know I am in the hospital. Not good. July 20th 2017 was one of the darkest days of my life. Honestly, I didn’t want to be here anymore. 😰
 
I did another round of comprehensive blood work and I acutely remember the doctor saying “if it’s not metabolic then it must be psychiatric and that I should prepare myself to go down the psychiatric medication route”. In tears. No I refuse to accept that. Something is wrong with my body and I just need to figure it out. And then Amare divinely entered my life …
 
About a week into the 3 day reboot + Fundamentals. I started noticing big shifts. My head felt clearer, I could remember what I was about to say or do, my energy levels kicked back in 💯, my overall outlook on life felt way more positive, I was sleeping better. 😴😍
 
Then the weight started to fall off unexpectedly. I kid you not, I haven’t been able to get my weight to budge at all over the past couple of years. I am down 11lbs and its still coming off … and without exercise. I have only been back to the gym once since getting back from vacation at the end of August. Shhh don’t tell anyone.
 
It’s amazing what can happen to your body when you address the root cause of your symptoms. Everything else heals itself like our bodies were intended to do. Thank you Amare. ❤️😃🎉
