Do you take levothyroxine? Until recently I could get Eltroxin in Saudi, which is natural, not synthetic, but I can't seem to get it any more.. I have never managed to get balanced since I had to start taking the levothyroxine they give me in the UK... we had such a lot of trouble in Bahrain with hooky drugs coming from India and Pakistan that I decided to ask the NHS for mine, to be safe... I have ulcerative colitis too, and that's auto-immune... since the day I started low-carbing in October I have never had a day's illness with it - and it has plagued my life constantly until then, since I was a teenager... amazing, isn't it? The deadly carbs I suppose...
