Is it safe to take medicine until you die to help treat hypothyroidism?
I need to know if the medicine is bad for me, I have been taking it for 3 years now, I am opening the throat chakra to try to cure hypothyroidism and stop taking medicine, anyone who can help me thank you.
Hypothyroidism, in a general sense, is a manifestation of a yang deficiency of the body. In other words, it is completely curable and one should not need to treat it forever.
I would recommend seeing a holistic doctor that can better evaluate what may be causing the yang deficiency, as well as what can fix it. In addition to working on the throat chakra, focus more on physical healing and yoga. Since you are treating a yang deficiency, you would want yang yoga like kundalini yoga, Tibetan 5 Rites, or other styles like that.
As far as specifics on your condition, here is an excerpt from
this article on thyroid conditions.
Two patterns of Yang Deficiency are differentiated for hypothyroidism: Spleen/Kidney Deficiency, and Heart/Kidney Deficiency. In the pattern of
Yang Deficiency with Spleen and Kidney Deficiency, the key symptoms are: lassitude; sleepiness; poor memory; dizziness; ringing in the ears (tinnitus); weakness of the lower back and knees; aversion to cold; dry skin; dry hair; constipation; edema; impotence (men); irregular periods (women); pale, puffy tongue body with tooth marks along the edge; white, sticky tongue coating; and a pulse that is deep and thin or deep and slow.
In the pattern of Yang Deficiency with Heart and Kidney Deficiency, the characteristic symptoms are: heart palpitations; chest congestion and pain; sleepiness; feeling cold; pale, tender tongue body with a white, slippery coating; and a deep, slow pulse.
