 +<blockquote> Reminds me of the TSH test:they are addicted to it for detecting a thyroid problem.  No abnormal TSH, you don't have any thyroid disorder-see a psychiatrist.    I use Lugol's Solution diluted by about 20 times to keep thyroiditis symptoms at bay.  Not every day, usually once every 10 days or so.  Yet, according to them, I don't have a thyroid disorder(!).  When the Hashimoto's first showed up some decades ago, I had a 1:100 titer antithyroid antibody.  There are so many antithyroid antibodies in several different immunoglobulin families that no tests are available for.   You have antibodies but they don't know they exist, no test available even in the research laboratories, so therefore you need a psychiatrist  (The psychologists and psychiatrists I consulted in the past have unanimously sent me straight back to the physical medical system as I don't have any psychological issues at all in their opinion.)
