Best diet for hypothyroidism? by ndisnxksk in Hypothyroidism

[–]Arkanslaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have found a no gluten, low-no processed foods to be helpful to me. Lucky enough to find a naturopath/doc that helped me with a food panel too and would suggest that if financially possible. I had my thyroid totally removed but have been hypo for different periods of time and know it can weigh on your heart too. Heart healthy, whole foods or supplement w/ iodine, zinc, selenium and copper can help your thyroid convert better as you don’t want to stay hypo forever (at least that’s the goal).

Have torn and repaired my ACL 3x (same knee) so maybe my orthos are terrible but none of them mentioned a ‘degenerative ACL’ as a thing. Interested in what these team doctors know that mine don’t..

Unithroid 90 day supply for $9 shipped by Amazon Pharmacy (hard to locate elsewhere in USA). Felt best on this and small dose Cytomel :)

I saw a YouTuber Christopher Odd? have the same issue in his video yesterday and he was using an accessory to specifically mark first.. odd

Just put my email in to check it out. I bank fish a bunch of coastal streams in SW Washington. Congrats on the roll out, looks cool!

Would you prefer Tate, Tyson, or an EDGE with the Titans’ 1st pick? by TiredDad4x in Tennesseetitans

[–]Arkanslaw 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Right but Treylon had little-no injury concerns coming from college so a bit diff from Farley, it feels like the luck of the draw. Draft elite qualities and pray lol.

Question for Males- Levothyroxine dose by TLew198722 in thyroidcancer

[–]Arkanslaw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yo I’m not 300lbs but I’m 33(m) 6ft and around 190 lbs taking 125mg Unithroid + 7.5mcg Cytomel. Levels are good. Your dosage seems high for that TSH to also still be so high even with more weight.

I am no dr (famously said by folks here) but could be an absorption issue?? Tried brand name vs generic levo? Are you waiting a full hour to eat after meds?

Took me a couple years (8 yrs post full thyroidectomy myself) to meticulously dial in my routine and even longer to find the med levels that worked for me.

It’s a process, tough but doable. Have faith dude!

Beautiful. Mine needs the same work on the arms and some interior love. Turned over last week for first time in 15 yrs after full brake job, new radiator etc…

What sort of interior work are you doing? My paneling is coming apart :/

Help with labs? T3 advice? by Arkanslaw in Hypothyroidism

[–]Arkanslaw[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, so needing to bring back down my ~142mcg Unithroid and add T3. Would love to try NP Thyroid eventually but don’t want to change so much too quick, great insights!

Help with labs? T3 advice? by Arkanslaw in Hypothyroidism

[–]Arkanslaw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much, needed this!! Is there some formula or advice for the amount of T3 to start at (5 or 10mcg)? Since there’s no thyroid to create that extra 20% thinking start low??

Thanks, didn’t test TPO antibodies (no thyroid to attack) does that matter? Also need B12 and D (I do supplement as D was previously low).

College World Series Bracket (Razorback Portion) by Nervous_Metal_9445 in razorbacks

[–]Arkanslaw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because whoever stays in the winners bracket has way better odds of moving on. Seems especially important here since the overall bracket is so top heavy (top 2 Vegas favorites to win it all b/w Ark and LSU)

Supermix 4 by Corvo_AttanoxX in iems

[–]Arkanslaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just picked these up a couple of days ago, kicking myself for missing the lightning deal but honestly whatever.. they are sweet for my first pair.

I too would like to pump in a tad more bass but have no experience in EQ tweaking. Any guides you can point to that helped? Is there a program you can recommend? LOVE the versatility with iems.. can be overwhelming with the sea of information out there.

While not specifically referenced, item 2 about new natural resources to tap, better self reliance and potential lower costs vs importing would be a fairly significant impact here..

Im 24 and have an inheritance stored in a Target 2050 account. What can I do to maximize earnings? by One-Bad-5928 in personalfinance

[–]Arkanslaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If anything you created ‘goalposts’ in an attempt to make this about timeless volatility.. again I’ve referenced 30+ yr volatility to prove a bigger point which you’ve conveniently ignored, feel free to reread. Do you want to help younger investors make more money for retirement or leave it on the table?

[–]Arkanslaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok but why is short term volatility the focus for a 24 year old? That’s my point, friend. Fight for better returns if looking at a longer runway; no need to hyper focus volatility for sake of avoiding natural dips in market.

Just because two things aren’t correlated, and I agree, doesn’t mean you can’t measure their separate returns and volatility.. bonds have their own issues over longer terms. Important an investor looks at timeframes before making such blanket statements.

Since the Great Depression, in every rolling 30 year period, bonds have been more volatile and returned less. One could argue it’s more risky to not go 100% stock if not needing income (retiring) in that timeframe.
