The Office of Dr. Brad Shook wear you mask doc lol
Do you know your sideways?
Misty, I do now! LOL!
Hi Dr brad
turn your camera….
Carlee, it’s too late… I didn’t read any of the comments as they were coming through.
That’s what happens when you leave rotation lock on. LOL
Why can’t these doctors think outside the box here and the insurance company’s have too much power Having hashimoto this has complicated my issues exponentially and it’s unfair
Lydia, I understand and that’s why we have to work to change the system to support the health care that we want.
Hi there! Hope you are having an amazing week!
Hey Teresa! I’m having a great week and I hope you and your family are too.
Yay….can’t wait!
Thank you for your information
Carolyn, you are welcome. I hope it helps. Have a nice night.
It’s so hard to get doctors to understand, when you have gravis and myasthenia doctors act like they are terrified to touch or treat me
Margaret, I’m sorry you’re having so much difficulty getting help. Myasthenia gravis is a serious autoimmune condition. Anytime I’ve worked with someone that’s autoimmune we always a very extensive testing and try to be as specific as possible.
It really is and locally no one wants to even treat a common cold, one doctor tried to prescribe muscles relaxers , I explained it wasn’t a good mix with the Mestinon he replied what is that, I tried to explain everything again he said I had to drive 3 hours to my doctor that prescribed it to my, I had Contusions of the ribs
Thank you for this. I have had a heart dissection and valve replacement and have thyroid disease. The primary care providers I have been to in Daytona seem to write off all my symptoms. How do I get the doctors to take me serious?
Hi Dr. Brad,
A poser…my lab results show low tsh and my doctor cot my armour thyroid back. Is that right???
June, when TSH is low it suggests that your thyroid hormone levels are too high. TSH is made by the pituitary gland and it goes down when your thyroid levels go up, so typically if your TSH is low than it suggests that you are on too high of a dose of your hormone that’s why they lowered it.
You definitely don’t want to be hyper because it can create a lot of problems too.
The Office of Dr. Brad Shook THANK YOU! I’ve been eating organic for 7 years, eating gluten free, nightshade free and low sugar (stevia) to help with Hashimotos. I do as much as I can but… I am 5’5 and weigh 98-102 lbs. What can I eat to gain? I’m also sensitive to dairy. I still drink lain kefir. Can you suggest something? I’ll try anything.
Your video is sideways to me
Yes!! When I asked for testing outside of my just tsh which was always normal, but felt horrible for years. Now I have a doc who tested everything, even a1c and antibodies, which came back positive and said I’m now Hashimoto. My endocrinologist wants me to get a cortisol stimulation test in July, says mine is low. I feel from watching your videos I’m on my way of getting myself back getting all the right stuff looked at.
Betsy, that’s a great start! Having an understanding whether or not your autoimmune is a key factor.
Dr. Shook, you are just the best. You gave me validation and hope and Im forever grateful
Kristína, you’re welcome! Thank you for sharing, it helps to keep me going too. Warm regards.
this makes SO MUCH SENSE!!!!
Hi Libba! I know right? This is the unfortunate truth.
Weight gain is awful !!!
Weight gain,fatigue,brain fog,

How does celiac come into play
Darenda, it’s an autoimmune condition that is often found with Hashimoto’s and autoimmune thyroid condition.
Anytime there is autoimmunity it is the top priority … addressing anything that drives the immune resonse is important to help lower inflammatory levels
Dr.Shook your video is sideways.Always thankful for all the info from you.
Pretrea, I figured it out after the live stream… lol!
The Office of Dr. Brad Shook ,thats ok.I really appreciate all the info and help.
The model doesn’t work for anyone that needs more time to understand.
This is why insurance needs to be out of healthcRe.
How can we get the guidebooks?
Do you have a fee for the reading information? Is it available online?
I sadly went from doctor to doctor until I finally found a good one who knew what he was doing and finally got me on the correct meds!
I’m happy you care about us out here. It’s a dread to talk with my dr. She hasn’t a clue.
Hashimotos and Menopause is horrendous…. ugh
So True… sad
Please, how do I get your books?
Dr said a virus caused it, my thyroid problems. They give me the normal blood tests though tsh., ECT. I really could use someone to help me to figure this out…3rd ed. Book. Please.
