I saw an endocrinologist today. It was not a total failure but I think that he thought I was full of you-know-what. I asked about adrenal burnout, especially since I used to take ECA on a regular basis. He didn't think that I would have adrenal burnout from that; he felt that the adrenal glands were very resilient. I mentioned TSP and Dr. Schwarzbein...and he gave me this funny little smirk, saying that she was an "interesting individual" (didn't elaborate on that). He didn't have any problem with the info in TSP, but I got the feeling that he wasn't terribly impressed. He felt that LC dieting was basically only useful for people with hyperinsulemia or diabetes. I took "Thyroid Power" along with me to show him some things, and he checked out the authors' bios. His response: "Oh, they're holistic people." So he's a very by-the-book guy--not what I was hoping for.
