It really does sound as if you're very lactose intolerant. Homemade yogurt, when made properly, will have no lactose at all. Most recipes start with a gallon of milk but I suggest that you make a half batch first. Definitely drain it to make it thicker/more palatable. Use the whey in baked goods or drink it straight or in smoothies. Good luck!

I agree with you regarding the one-month trial for thyroid change. I am slowly getting my thyroid dialed in and my eyebrows are slowly growing back. But I wait for a full month before decided on changes in dosage.

FYI: I am taking 50mcg Levothyroxine daily (at midnight), plus 3 drops Tyronene in AM, dessicated thyroid in the afternoon and 2 drops Tyronene at 4-5PM. (I have no thyroid.)

Re: Extra thiamine

Wow, this sounds pretty serious. Who are you guys talking about? I'm brand new here and trying to figure things out. Thx!
