Dear Sharon,
You said: <<Can you expound on hypothyroidism? I do have it. But most of the docs I have been to just want to throw some pills at you and send you on your way, with no discussion on how best to live with it. I have my theories. Like that somehow it is connected to depression. And that strenuous exercise will help balance it. But these are just theories. Now I am worried that It will get worse if I take CS all the time. Is there a test to measure selenium Catherine?>> Different tests are for different purposes. If you are concerned you are deficient in selenium then both plasma/serum total Se and plasma glutathione peroxidase are what you want. Each provides slightly different information. For selenium toxicity, a person would have total plasma/serum Se done. I think some of the best thyroid info around is at Mary Shomon's site at http://thyroid.about.com/index.htm?terms=Hypothyroidism Regards, Catherine -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
