Kathryn’s Story

Kathryn is a thirty-eight-year-old female who came to see me with complaints of fatigue, weight gamin, muscle aches, and joint pain.

She was taking fifty-eight prescription pills a day, including anti-depressants, narcotic pain medication, and two different anti-inflammatory prescriptions.

She was feeling horrible and not getting any relief. Her marital life was in disarray and she was temporarily disabled because she could not work.

Not one of the multiple physicians she was seeing, including an internist, ob-gyn, psychiatrist, and rheumatologist, had checked her hormone levels.

Her testosterone was near zero and her free T3 thyroid hormone was very low.

Once her hormones were optimized, I was able to wean her of all medications. She was pain free, losing weight, and said that she had not felt this good in years.
