hi, michelle

you might want to try vegetable-blended juice like i do.

*two glasses of vegetable juice daily: carrot, cucumber, potato, and spinachmade with a blender (so you are not drinking just the juice part.)
*i also add soy milk only b/c the homeopathic dr. suggested for myself. you can use fresh fruit juice instead.
*fruit can also be added to make it taste better. it seems banana helps to 
calm my heartbeats.

i have had hyperthyroid for 10 years. it always went up and down, and i was on and off tapazale accordingly but could never be completely off for over 2 months. over a year ago, i started taking vitamins as what this hyperthyroid egroup suggested. i did feel much better, but i could still be back on low-dosage of tapazale at times depending on workload. last october my mom found out she had cancer. someone suggested to give her vegetable juice. i made it and took it myself (since my mom hated the taste... ; ) and i can say now this helps and provides me with the most obviously healthy result (while still taking some vitemins). i have been off tap since last december. and the highest test level i ever have since then was T4/10.4 TSH/1.42

i am still monitoring my body reaction. and since i am not back working 
full-time yet, i am reserved on saying how well i will be with work stress 
later on. but your test level does strike me as way too high. i believe 
taking veg-blended juice will help you feel better, if not cure you yet.
best, fae : )
