what is the symptoms of Thyroid? can it be cure?
Hello, harajukukitten
As I understand it your thyroid can be over stimulated (Hyper) for so long and then take a nose dive into Low (Hypo) thyroid. Like some that can drink coffee at 4 pm and can't sleep till after midnight. After your reserves are depleted you will turn eventually hypo and you can drink coffee 10 minites before you go to sleep. (No reserves left to stymulate) This is just a suggestion of how some people can deplete there adrenals and may not apply to you.
How ever I do have some much more concrete information on thyroid treatment than that. First google Lugols Iodine, or Iodine thyroid and check out Iodine for both hyper and hypo there.
Also you could read up a little and get a Iodine loading test per this site:

Also research info at:

Also check out coconut oil, this will also help thyroid both ways to some degree.
I am in the camp that believes in my own research much much more than the agenda driven medical proffestion.
Good Luck, Naturalman
Fear of medical runaround aside, get yourself to the dr. Today. Now. Do it. I'd suggest getting your blood sugar tested, as well as being tested for vitamin/mineral deficiencies. The constant thirst and frequent urination is a big indicator of a problem.
Please keep us posted. :)
You definitely need to see a doctor....just so you know, for the last 3 months my thyroid has been very underactive with a TSH of 18 and I lost 25 pounds...I thought this was odd given that most people with hypothyroidism gain weight...my doctor said that a small percentage of people do lose weight when they are underactive...and I too am having problems gaining it back....good luck....debbie
You need to see a doctor. I understand getting caught up in a medical runaround, but some of your symptoms suggest diabetes and can be very serious if ignored. Wouldn't it be better to know what is wrong than worry? Maybe you do have a thyroid problem, but if you do nothing, then nothing changes.........think about it!
a folow up on my question after reading previous posts .
ive always been thin .. mom is thin . dad is thin . but since these symptoms started four years ago my appetitie has increased .yet no weight gain is achieved reguardless of what i eat . in fact despite my hunger actually sitting down to eat is very uncomfortable and has resulted in eating less often and in smaller amounts .. im also always thristy . but no matter how much i drink i will only urinate shortly after and remain dehydrated. once again a doctor would likely fix this issue . but with the contradictions of symptoms i fear getting caught up in the medical runaround
You cannot have both at the same time and it is rare to fluctuate between the two rapidly. If the labs are normal for thyroid then there is likely something else going on. The problem with all the common symptoms is that they are NOT specific to the thyroid -- in other words, many other potential causes.
