Hashimotos and Bipolar

Hashimotos and Bipolar

Hi folks 🙂

I have Hashimotos (Hypothyroid autoimmune disease) and Bipolar II and I am interested to hear if anyone has a health practitioner who is well versed in the two.

The link between them is acknowledged but it's early days as to how best to heal a thyroid. Certainly for western medicine anyhow.

This link is interesting:

Hi again @Mulgajane - great to see a conversation about this topic.

Did just want to clarify that while we can't talk about specific practitioners in an anonymous forum like this - it's more than OK to discuss the topic generally.

Hopefully if anyone has any experience of these diagnoses they will jump in here.

All the best!

Okay @s-jay

I forgot about that.

I gather that means though that we can mention medical practice but just no names?

So I could say that I have a wonderful doctor but not give any clue as to who it is?

I am not interested in outing people at all, I just recognise that how we are treated by the medical system is going to be a subject on people's minds.

And that we are all looking for a cure! 🙂

Hi @Mulgajane - yes that's right - just no identifying info of doctors or centres etc.

With you on looking for cures and help!
