After feeling run down and lethargic for several years I requested a thyroid test by my GP. The test confirmed I had an under-active thyroid (Hashimoto) and was prescribed thyroxine. I took it for several years but was still feeling quite fatigued. I was given another blood test (again at my request) to see whether there was any improvement in my thyroid levels, which there was, albeit very small. The dosage of oroxin was then reduced but as soon as I started taking it I felt extremely nauseous (I must admit that while taking the thyroxine initially I did feel nauseous but I just ignored the feeling). I kept taking the oroxine for a week just to make sure I wasn’t eating or drinking anything else that was causing the nausea. I am lactose intolerant so when I had a close look at the ingredients on the packet it contained lactose. I was now sure it was the oroxine (and the lactose in it) that was causing the nausea. I called our local Pharmacist to see if there was an alternative thyroid medication I could take that did not contain lactose. I was told by the Pharmacist that all thyroid medications contained lactose. I was also told by the Pharmacist and GP when I raised the issue with them that it shouldn’t be an issue for me because the amount of lactose present in the tablet was very minimal. Unfortunately my stomach disagreed.
When I found Daliya approx 4 mnths ago I was still feeling lethargic. Daliya promptly requested the relevant tests. I was impressed with how thorough and accommodating she was. Once the results came back she prescribed the relevant tonics, etc to balance my thyroid levels and improve my immune system. I am 50 years of age and also going through the big change, so I have been prescribed additional tonics, etc to address this. Although I am pretty healthy and exercise regularly I have found that when I am sleeping well I feel a lot better. Daliya prescribed one of her magic potions that helped me sleep like a baby! I have seen Daliya for follow-up sessions and I feel a whole lot better. I have a lot more energy and feel like I am in control and not feel like a crazy woman!
I have seen Daliya in her home office during the day. It is discreet and convenient as I live in the suburb next to her and not have to worry about travelling long distances.
