Thanks for all the input. That was much more then I found available on the Net. Someone asked what the VA was; it is the Veterans Administration. My symptoms are everything that was indicated on the different sites. These have been ongoing for approximate 2 years. I did read on one of the site that Mercury Posioning could also be attributed... at the time the symptoms became worse (extreme tiredness/sore muscles/aches/no motivation/depression/etc) I had just begun some dental work (again through the Veterans Admin Clinic) I was have old (20+ years) removed and filed. I had 10 or more of these filing done. I had asked them about composit filing but they indicated they do not use them. This is the one area that has always bothered me since I was 12 and had lots of dental work. My mouth felt like it was draining metal.... when I would tell the doctor/dentist they just dismissed me. I have been on Collodial Silver for over 3 years and I go through 5 to 8 gallons each month between me and my cats. I believe this has helped me but I'm not sure how it would assist the thyroid condition. I've also been taking Clarks collodial Minerals for about 2 years. I order a half case 2 to 3 times a year. My water intake is Walgreen Distilled water which I usually take hot. Once a day I go though my prepared drink (3/4 C all natual grape juice/3 caps Collodial Minerals/1/2 C Collodial Silver/Distilled water) my bottle hold 32 oz. My other daily items are EMPower Plus (6 capsules/Blessed Herbs Digestive Stimulator 5 Caps/Blessed Herbs Toxin Absorber 1Pkg to 3 Pkg/) (Bedtime: Herbalife Sleep Now-3caps/Herbalife Relax Now-1Cap/Natures Bounty Coral Calcium-1000 Mg/Puritan Pride-Chelated Calcium Magnesium Zinc-1000Mg/Baclofen 2-10mg pills (muscle relaxor)-Codeine- 1-300mg (only when needed) This night time regement allows be good sleep 4 to 6 hour straight. I used to be up and down every hour.... My diet is mainly vegeterian (not exclusive; do have fish/turkey/chicken occasionally) In the last 6 months I've reduced my food intake by over 50%. Again thanks for the comments and if anyone has something to add i appreicate all the comments. connie
