Hello! I have been suffering from hypothyroid for 4 years now. Two weeks ago I have been found gallstones in my gallbladder. I am experiencing a lot of abdominal pain and I just don’t know how to get rid of it. Any ideas?

Four years ago I had similar problems with hypothyroid ( still have ) and gallbladder and I was recommended to take Lipotropic Metabolizer by Country Life. Lipotropic nutrients are essential components of cell walls and are involved in cell growth, and it gets rid of fat in liver. I was taking one tablet 3 times a day with meals, it helped me a great deal. You may try it as well.

I am hypothyroid and had awful stomache aches . my endo tested me for B12 def. and I was. Anyway I TAKE 1000 MG. OF SUBLINGUEL B12 A DAY and i have no more stomache problems. I thought it was my gallbladder because it would hurt and nothing would take the pain away. Might want to tryit you have nothing to lose except the pain. plus i have more energy.

I too have been hypo for about 4 years. I had symptoms before being diagnosed and was told several years before that that I had IBS. Treatment with levothyroxine helped my energy, but the abdominal issues continued and worsened over the years. I thought I had gallbladder problems, along with all kinds of other things that cropped up and made me miserable. A new doctor finally tested my B12 and I was really low. B12 has gotten rid of most of the abdominal and other problems. Life isn't physically perfect, but it is a heck of a lot better now. Some of the problems might hang on forever, as the damage might not reverse. It doesn't hurt to get your B12 tested. And........it is virtually impossible to overdose on B12, so you could get supplements even if your physicians disagree. Best of luck to you in finding out what is wrong and how to get better!
