My broken Hip and the rehab facility response to my current thyroid protocol.

On Saturday July 16th 2011, when I got off the final bus from my trip to Gold Bar to volunteer at Fancy Fronds Fern Nursery, I was running across the street because I couldn’t see the lights clearly due to the sun being directly on them, so the cart I was dragging went wonkus and wrapped around my legs and I fell and broke my left hip and fractured my left wrist.

I was taken to Swedish Edmonds (formerly Steven’s Hospital) and they did surgery on my hip to pin it the following day.  Now I have 6 weeks of recovery to get through.  My leg was so swollen originally it couldn’t be moved, let alone me move it on my own.  My wrist was apparently fractured by the guy trying to help me get out of the street.  He had it bent up in an odd way.  It’ll be OK and doesn’t bother me.

Anyway I was moved to a rehab facility that will remain nameless because I have had a thyroid incident with the facility MD here already.  The medical director decided to test my Thyroid and vitamin D level without my knowledge or permission.  I take 8,000 Units of Vitamin D daily, and the Vitamin D test came back perfect.  But, since he did not test my thyroid correctly, he chose to change my dosages.

I met him briefly and he told me how too much T3 can cause an increased heart rate.  I said “easily countered with beta blockers” whereupon he said “Oh your pretty smart about this stuff,” and I added “if you are getting increased heart rate as a response to treatment you might want to back off on the T3.”  He looked at me like he couldn't believe what he was hearing—somebody who actually knows a little about thyroid protocol!  Then he proceeded to change my dosages based on two “known to be inaccurate” tests and he ignored the “correct tests” on the same page of the lab report that both indicated I am right where I should be.

 

Folks this is NORMAL behavior of the Medical profession.  Instead of asking me why I am being treated differently and using T3 protocol, he made his own assumptions and treated me according to his assumptions.  My T3 protocol is what it is in order to prevent the reoccurrence of Coronary Artery Disease, Diabetes, Obesity, Fibromyalgia, and Chronic Fatigue etc…

So, here is an interesting factoid—while I’m here I can ask lots of medical professional a very pertinent question.  I ask medical professionals at random if they would give me an antibiotic that my body has to convert to a useable form in order to work, and they all look horrified at the thought! They can’t see any way that this would be good idea!  Yet this is how thyroid protocol is done every day!  Instead of giving the usable form of thyroid hormone called T3, they give T4 which must be converted to T3 in order to have any effect at all on you!  Not only that; they give you SYNTHETIC T4!  So, you can see this can’t be a good way to do things, and the TSH type of diversionary testing protocol is never used for anything other than thyroid issues! 

Please be aware that the information I am giving you is totally contrary to what the drug companies want the medical profession to rely on.  The medical reference books are all written, or underwritten, by drug companies who want money—not health!

I will happily answer any questions you may have, but I am not a medical professional and all I can give you is a non-medical opinion.  However, I am an excellent troubleshooter; I did it for a living, so that is where I may be able to assist you.

Remember

All truth passes through three stages:

First, it is ridiculed.

Second, it is violently opposed.

Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
