The gist of the new finding by Dr Schor is that many hypothyroid patients may be missed because up to now nobody has realized that TSH levels fluctate on a pattern not much different from cortisol. This is no surprise to me since I have already learned that when we awaken naturally in the morning, it coincides with an increase on our body temperature, whereas when we fall to sleep, our bodies cool down. Thyroid hormone is a heater upper; without it you are cold. Based on what I know of the release patterns of TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone), CRH (cortisol releasing hormone), and GH (growth hormone), I am going to assume that all hypothalamic hormones follow a diurnal rhythm, and that it is possible that they might all pulse in the pre-dawn hours and decrease in the afternoon.

As I understand it, I can do my own microscopy for diagnostic purposes, I just can't charge the client for the service unless I have the right CLIA cert. If I find something I will send a sample to a certified lab and go through the standard procedure. If someone is having an acute leukemic attack, I don't want to wait for the bloodwork to get back to take action!

Dr Peter D’Adamo has created a counter tool and sent a writeup of basic lab procedure.
This is so nice to have!
Thank you Dr D'A.

Medical researchers have discovered a new disease that has no symptoms. It is impossible to detect, and there is no known cure. Fortunately, no cases have been reported thus far.
--George Carlin

I'm not taking notes on the cases themselves, just on factoids.
