Alpha Lipoic Acid and Levoxyl

by MarHope, May 22, 2004 12:00AM
Although I only occasionally look at this site it has helped me very much with my diagnosis of Hep C  while I await my appt. with a Hepatologist to determine Tx or not.  My prayers go out to all for sure.
I was on Tx earlier this year and pulled off after shot #6 hence
the second opinion.

Does anyone on this site use Alpha Lipoic Acid (probably some do) along with a thyroid med?  I am hypothryoid, but not from earlier tx.

Thank you,
MarHope

Hello and welcome to the forum! Glad you have posted, too!

I'm sorry to hear about your failed tx. I hope that your meeting with your hepatologist will be a good one - and he/she will be able to offer you helpful information and possible solutions.

Though I am not on any type of thyroid medication, I have been taking Alpha Lipoic Acid (250 mg. - 2x/day) for 9 years now. (I also take Milk Thistle (silymarin) 300 mg.- 2x/day and N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) 600 mg. - 3x/day).

Hopefully someone here who has experience with both thyroid meds and ALA will be able to answer your question.


May God's blessings and mercy be upon you.
