Hi Sarah ,
Regards the piuatry , I would ask the endocrinologist caring for your thyroid to keep an eye on it
It their field
All meds come with a list of ingredients . The fillers are listed here . Wheat can be labeled as wheat starch , gluten ( you know this soz ) modified wheat strach . Some have just starch , in this situation it is not possible to know which kind . So I would avoid
Foods wise , a symptom diary may shed light on things for you . It helped me a great deal . The TMS site has a list off common food triggers :-
Alcohol , any vinigars , anything fermented , preservatives .
I found out all of these the hard way. Caramel colouring is a particular problem for me .
In working them out I would say follow your instinct . if you think something is bothering you , it probably is
xxxxxxxxx
The bucket theory works well for me . Stress strirs it up ;-(
I shock , so i completely understand the feeling of it happening and not knowing where it is coming from . I spent 2 yrs feeling like I was going to be run over by a bus , just didn't know when . Yeah . I know i don't have control but my chemical ( medication ) barrier is working much better now . Im dodgy today , but on the right side of ok . I ahve the right side and wrong side
I only worked out triggers as I got more stable
The thing I did first was try and work out my early warning signs and medicate them
Mine are , feeling grumpy for absolutely no reason , can't find my words , ears ringing . I would love to help you work out yours if you would like
many hugs
Josie
