My status is as follows: My temperature has dropped more than half a degree (from 36.5 to 36) since my first month on RRARF. This is morning readings. Later on is a different story, since it drops further, during the day/evening. Cold hands and feet. Yesterday I wrapped my feet in a blanket, in an attempt to defrost the two giant ice cubes there were attached to them. NO luck what so ever.
I have gained more weight, since I was sick for a little week. I still have no desire to exercise. I'm actually pretty lethargic in general.
I've been studying my old lab results again and researching a whole lot. I'm thinking it might not be a thyroid problem but a pituitary problem. The last doctor I went to, suggested this as well. I'm thinking I have way to many hormonal issues for this to only be a thyroid issue. But then again, everything depends on proper thyroid function, just like everything depends on a healthy pituitary. Again, everything seems to come down to the chicken or egg question..
On a good note, I am leaving for Hungary tomorrow! My moms boyfriend owns a house there and the family is going for a 4 day trip. It's my first time there so it should be exiting. I am going to taste raw grass fed cow milk, while I am there -looking forward to that. I wish I could bring some home with me because it is impossible to get where I live.
Awesome! Have fun, someday I will have to get over to the eastern countries! I have only been to Netherlands, Belgium, France, and Germany so far.
SvarSletAbout the progesterone, I think Peat would recommended the cream or oil. He makes one called progest-e (progesterone, vitamin E, and coconut oil - just 3 ingredients). You can order it from different websites, not sure if it would deliver to Europe though...
Have fun on your trip. Should find lots of good food too. If you get the chance try Dobos torte or Rigo Jancsi, they are both pretty amazing desserts.
SvarSletThanks ;-)
SvarSletYou haven't even been to the best of them all -Denmark! ;-P Sweden is pretty great too.
I actually have some progesterone cream already. I just looked at the ingredients. it's made with macadamia oil and vitamin E, which should be fine. Now I just need to apply it, if I dare. LOL
Riles-
SvarSletThanks ;-)
Omonomnomnom.. I am writing those down right now. LOL! What are they made of?
Sold! Denmark has been added to the list!
SvarSletThey are two different types of cakes that are pretty well known. Both have chocolate and buttercream and spongecake layers. Definitely worth a sampling..Although probably not the healthiest things; if you like chocolate and dont try these I will be pretty upset :P
SvarSletAlso, I don't know if you drink, but there are some good hungarian wines too.. I am a bad influence ;)
Riles-
SvarSletHa ha ha! I like your thinking Mr! Buttercream and spongecake.. Mmmmmm..(insert drooling Homer Simpson here)
I love chocolate and I definitely don't want to upset Mr. Riles so I guess I just have to obey!
I very rarely drink. Not because I am fanatic but I can't really handle alcohol. One glass of wine and I am toasted :-D
If I do end up drinking, I'll blame it all on you ;-)
