all your advice I will take into consideration on CKD, if I feel my this diet isn't for me I will switch to a maint. plan. In the meantime I'm looking for a doc that will help me out w/ the thyroid & test. problem.
Have your family doc refer you to an endocrinologist based on your low test levels, low thyroid levels, and aparent effects it's having on your life (yes---------be sure to exaggerate) and it will be his responsibility to refer you......not his choice
I will let you know what happens on Tues. have an appt. w/internal doc. on tues. a.m. going to bring in my blood tests and will def. exaggerate symtoms!
