Save My Thyroid: Healing Tips for Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's
If you have hyperthyroidism (Graves' disease, toxic multinodular goiter, etc.) or Hashimoto's thyroiditis and are looking to do everything to save your thyroid gland, then the Save My Thyroid podcast is for you! Dr. Eric Osansky DC, IFMCP is the host, as he personally was diagnosed with Graves' disease in 2008 and was able to get into remission taking a natural approach. He created this podcast to help others with hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's save their thyroid and regain their health. If you have hyperthyroidism then pretty much all of the episodes will benefit you, and if you have Hashimoto's you'll benefit from most of the guest expert episodes, as well as some of the "solo" episodes. The reason there is more of a focus on hyperthyroidism is because all of the other thyroid-related podcasts focus mostly on hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's, and since Dr. Eric personally dealt with Graves' disease he wanted this podcast to focus more on hyperthyroidism, although it will still offer plenty of value to those with hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's. Dr. Eric Osansky lives in Matthews NC with his wife, 2 daughters, 3 cats, 2 dogs, and 3 guinea pigs! He has been a practitioner for 20+ years, and has focused on helping people with thyroid and autoimmune thyroid conditions since 2009.
Save My Thyroid: Healing Tips for Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's
Can you have Graves' disease or Hashimoto's with negative thyroid antibodies?
Most people with Graves’ disease and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis have elevated thyroid antibodies. While a few people will have negative thyroid antibodies, certain factors - such as a suppressed immune system - can lead to false negative results.
Today, I’m sharing what we expect when testing thyroid antibodies, how to tell if someone has thyroid autoimmunity and diagnostic criteria for Graves’ disease and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Causes of false negative thyroid antibodies
- Methods to confirm whether it’s a true negative
- Why it’s crucial to test thyroid stimulating immunoglobulins (TSI) in cases of Graves’ disease
- Diagnostic criteria for Hashitoxicosis
- The presence of thyroid eye disease as an indicator of Graves' disease
- Challenges in diagnosing Hashimoto's thyroiditis
- Why it’s always important to address the foundations of good health, such as diet and lifestyle
As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
