Thyroid Finally Working – 18 years later
August 8, 2011
I'd been on Thyroid medication since the early 1990's for an under-active thyroid and had experienced quite a few side effects from that medication including severe shaking, heart palpitations, intolerance to heat, fluctuating weight and periods of overwhelming, insatiable hunger and sleep apnea. In October 2009 my dosage was changed a bit which resulted in even more side effects and weight gain of 10 pounds. Then in December 2009 I could no longer get the medication from any pharmacy as they'd all run out and weren't able to supply the demands for it. I refused to go on a synthetic medication as I'd already had so much trouble with the "natural" brand. So, I ended up "Cold Turkey" off the medication and trying to handle the problem with other supplements.
I was in Dr. Kwangs office after a co-worker recommended him to me. The first thing I noticed was his confidence in being able to tackle and handle the problem. I did not get a long list of what was wrong with me, but the straight scoop and the solution. I walked out of his office that first day with my sack of liquid herbs, feeling a bit elated and knowing that I was finally on the right track.
He found that I'd originally been mis-diagnosed with an underactive thyroid. He found that the medication I'd been on was actually keeping my thyroid from doing its job and the side effects I'd been experiencing for all of those years were nothing short of overdose symptoms. Yes, I was put on another natural medication by the specialist to give my body the jump-start it needed and get my thyroid count back up so that I was at least functioning ok while doing Dr. Kwang's program. But within 6 months on his program Dr. Kwang was able to gently wean me completely off of the Thyroid medication. Today? I have not gained weight and am smaller than I have been in years. Best of all, I am free of all of those side effects brought on by the medication.
I am most definitely alive and well – I never did end up in any hospital – and I am so far removed physically from the state I was in when I first visited his office that one might not recognize me (I recognize my face in the mirror now, whereas before I didn't!). Much of my handling seems to have evolved around the 18 years of taking a medication I never should've been on in the first place and all of those side effects I experienced during those 18 years have sort of done the reverse on the teas. Some of the symptoms, such as the insatiable hunger, came on very strongly taking the teas, but then went away completely. The difference was that I was getting rid of the symptoms rather than taking them on simply by getting to the root and of the problem and handling it. And the time it is taking to fully eradicate and handle those problems is far less than the 18 years it took to bring them on.
I recommended my friends to for quite a variety of problems that have experienced immediate relief. No other treatments they were offered didn’t help and with Dr. Kwang’s program – gone in 1-2 weeks.
Best, J. H.
