Oh my! Yes, l started with the starting procedure and then increased by .5 a drop until I got up to 3 drop per dose. I quickly backed down to 2 drops per dose when I started having the ill effects. I thought I was doing better at the 2 drop dose until late yesterday and I got sick all over again. I am confused to if I should slowly ween myself off my thyroid medicine while increasing my dose. Maybe I should seek the advise of a alternative medicine professional before resuming Protocol 1000. Thank you so much for responding to my question.
Hi DeboraK,
I also have Hashimoto's. I haven't started yet, but I'm in the process of doing so. I have taken many other alternative protocols over the years. Long story short, in addition to what CLO2 recommends, might I suggest you get your thyroid hormone blood levels checked. I've experienced symptoms of hypo when I was over medicated. My endocrinologist said this is common, including weight gain, which is typically a symptom of hypo, not hyper. As you heal, you may need to adjust your thyroid meds and eventually, hopefully be free of them.
