Autoimmune Disease / Hypothyroid

Do you have chronic symptoms that you cannot get rid of, no matter number of treatments and doctors visits that you have? Are you suffering daily even though you blood tests always come out normal and your doctor said there is nothing wrong with you?

Now we have the breakthrough solutions: you probably have autoimmune disease with either TPO, TGB or TSH antibody which is attacking your thyroid. No M.D. is doing it and it is not covered by your health insurance.

Now we can find out if you have autoimmune diseases through Energetic Nutritional Testing and special blood test to show if you have any of those three antibody mentioned above and we have a way to monitor your progress to make sure that your immune systems get regulated and your antibody going away.

What are autoimmune diseases (defined by the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services?)
Our bodies have an immune system that protects us from disease and infection. But if you have an autoimmune disease, your immune system attacks itself by mistake, and you can get sick. Autoimmune diseases can affect connective tissue in your body (the tissue which binds together body tissues and organs). Autoimmune disease can affect many parts of your body, like your nerves, muscles, endocrine system (system that directs your body’s hormones and other chemicals), and digestive system.

Who is at risk for getting autoimmune diseases?

Most autoimmune diseases occur in women, and most often during their childbearing years. Some of these diseases also affect African American, American Indian, and Latina women more than white women. These diseases tend to run in families, so your genes, along with the way your immune system responds to certain triggers or things in the environment, affect your chances of getting one of these diseases. If you think you may have an autoimmune disease, ask your family members if they have had symptoms like yours. The good news is that if you have an autoimmune disease, there ARE things you can do to feel better!

What are the most common symptoms of autoimmune diseases?

There are more than 80 types of autoimmune diseases. Learning the symptoms of some of the more common autoimmune diseases can help you recognize the signs if you get one. But some autoimmune diseases share similar symptoms. This makes it hard for doctors to find out if you really have one of these diseases, and which one it might be. This can make your trip to doctors long and stressful. But if you are having symptoms that bother you, you need to persist to make sure you get relief. Below are descriptions of some common autoimmune diseases.

Symptoms and Tests of Diseases
Disease	Symptoms	Tests to help find out if you have it
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (underactive thyroid)	tiredness depression sensitivity to cold weight gain muscle weakness and cramps dry hair tough skin constipation sometimes there are no symptoms	blood test for thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)
Graves’ disease (overactive thyroid)	insomnia (not able to sleep) irritability weight loss without dieting heat sensitivity sweating fine brittle hair weakness in your muscles light menstrual periods bulging eyes shaky hands sometimes there are no symptoms	blood test for thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)
Lupus	swelling and damage to the joints, skin, kidneys, heart, lungs, blood vessels, and brain “butterfly” rash across the nose and cheeks rashes on other parts of the body painful and swollen joints sensitivity to the sun	exam of your bodylab tests (antinuclear antibody [ANA] test, blood tests, and urine tests)
Multiple sclerosis (MS)	weakness and trouble with coordination, balance, speaking, and walking paralysis tremors numbness and tingling feeling in arms, legs, hands, and feet	exam of your body exam of your brain, spinal cord, and nerves (neurological exam) x-ray tests (magnetic resonance imaging [MRI] and magnetic resonance spectroscopy [MRS]) other tests on the brain and spinal cord fluid to look for things linked to these diseases
Rheumatoid arthritis	inflammation begins in the tissue lining your joints and then spreads to the whole joint (hand joints are the most common site, but it can affect most joints in the body) muscle pain deformed joints weakness fatigue loss of appetite weight loss becoming confined to bed in severe cases	blood tests may show that you have anemia (when your body does not have enough red blood cells) and an antibody called rheumatoid factor (RF). (Some people with RF never get this disease, and others with the disease never have RF.)
