Work in progress VDS 1
By: Vivian Sowden
Dr Berg, I am a work in progress. So if everything keeps going as I feel I could be a worth sharing story, maybe. In 2018 I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism at 48. I had a job that was stressful and I was playing a fast pace intense sport. Few months before that I was not able to sleep, missing periods, and was depressed for the first time in my life, I started having digestive issues and was nauseous in the mornings depending on what I ate.After the diagnostic, I tried to go natural but had no idea what to do so I tried doing juicing I went from 10.11 to 5.45 Thyroid H levels. My normal doctor didn't want to listen to my natural intentions. So in 2019 after trying on my own, I went to visit another doctor that tested all my hormones and I was so low. He recommended NP thyroid and HRT treatment. I was tired to feel the way I felt and how bad I was looking plus my husband was getting all the bitting of my moodiness, I just decided to try. I felt good for a while. Forward 2020 by November I started bleeding thicker uterus lining. Now liver enzyme higher and LDL borderline high. One year working on it didn't change anything in 2021 liver enzyme was still high or higher, my thyroid was back at 5 45 and the doctor increased my NP from 60 to 90mg. An ultrasound shows gallstone starting formation, a cyst in kidney nothing to worry about, gallbladder tube was thick some. All the other organs look ok. A month ago I tried IF and Keto from your videos. Past test shows my Alkaline E going down 202 now 198 or 163 two tests same name so I don't know and which one but Show low. My thyroid shoes now like I am hyper(?) Doc wants to put me back to 60mg. My other two liver enzymes are still high. BUT I lost belly fat, With all my exercise never had a flat belly,I feel better something. No bleeding anymore lower my HRT. It feels it is going well, no idea why. Best part I am digesting better no burping or feeling like I have something stuck in my stomach or air in my left side. I decided to go 30mg in my thyroid to hopefully start dropping the IF and keto also have improved my sleeping yess no waking up at 3am or nauseous. I have been working on your guidelines only one month I am stuck on the medication since I don't know if dropping cold turkey will be the best or slowly... my main doctor even talked to me about wanting to remove my gallbladder I told him no I want to try different options. He looked at me as I am crazy. Like I say I keep listening to your videos following your recommendations and I feel so much better..I am a work in progress I wanted you to know. I feel I have benefits from your videos. I will let you know my progress later VDS 2 and I can send pictures. I hope I become one of your success stories soon. Best wishes Vivian Sowden
