I am 82 years old. I have COPD, but I was feeling like there was a mass in my throat and I kept asking the doctor about it----and did not receive any help or answers. My daughter asked him to send to a throat specialist, who did a tube down my throat to check out the throat and the upper chest area. That doctor found nothing. My daughter asked the general practioner for a thyroid test. My TSH was 12 something.

The doctor wanted to put me on medication, but my daughter asked if we could try alternative. The doctor gave us three months and said we'll recheck. So, we ordered Thyromin and Endoflex. I took one capsule every night (well almost) and rubbed EndoFlex on my thyroid, externally. Last week we went to have the recheck. Great news. My TSH is now 6.4, with a goal of 5.5! So, the doctor again suggested medication, stating it's not where he'd like to see it. We said, no! We'll double up on the Thyromin. Anyway, that's my story and I'm stickin to it.
