Hi Bex,
You are probably right about the detox and that is probably a good reason to take it slow.

You said your temperatures are low, do they also vary quite a bit from day to day?

Interesting that you say that about hyperthyroid. The odd thing is that I charted my temps for a couple of months, they were low and up and down that whole time. Then all of a sudden they went above the normal temperature but were not fluctuating much at all. That would seem like hyperthyroid but yet I have nodules and labs indicate hypo? When the temps went high i started to lose my cool and become really irritable, angry, depressed and withdrawn. Before that my mood pretty much correlated to my temp - if it were low I'd be in a bad mood, and if it were close to normal I would feel happy all that day. It got so that I could almost predict what my temp would be like just from the mood I was feeling that morning and visa versa. Amazing stuff.

I have not taken anything for my thyroid or adrenals so the sudden change is strange and is another reason I have not taken anything for thyroid or adrenals, my labs and symptoms just don't make sense and It's hard to diagnose what the hell is actually going on lol. My hormones are all over the place at the moment too. Apparently I have the estrogen levels of a menopausal woman and yet I'm only 30!!! But then high estrogen is usually associated with hypothyroid not low. I'm also a little underweight, again this is not usually associated with hypo. So it's all puzzling. But I think I'm lucky in that my adrenal problems don't seem to be that bad. For that reason I've just been following Bees diet and want to see if that improves things at all. I'm impatient to get my fillings removed otherwise I would just be content following Bees diet without knowing the status of thyroid at all. However I'm trying to address thyroid and adrenals before starting any amalgam removal.

The good news is that according to a hair test I took after being on the diet for 6 months ( i also took one before starting the diet) shows that both adrenal and thyroid function have improved!

Anyways I've completely gone off on a tangent here sorry about that!
