THYROID ISSUES?

There are many ways I can help.

 

Hey there, I am Elle Russ - #1 bestselling author of The Paleo Thyroid Solution and creator of The Ultimate Thyroid Course. For over a decade I have successfully helped people all over the world resolve their thyroid issues.

Actually, fixing thyroid issues isn't that difficult - so why are 60% undiagnosed and so many people still suffering under the care of a medical doctor or an endocrinologist? Because these medical professionals are uninformed and using 40-year-old outdated thyroid protocols no longer practiced by informed, up-to-date physicians and experts like me. 

I know being sick is overwhelming. It is depressing. It is lonely. It is scary. I cried multiple times a day for several years while struggling with thyroid issues and dealing with uninformed doctors who kept me sick, misdiagnosed me, and never helped me. I was riddled with over 30 hypothyroid symptoms and felt hopeless.

THERE IS AN END TO THIS - YOU JUST NEED THE RIGHT GUIDANCE.

If any of the below sounds familiar - I get it. That used to be me.

  • Are you discouraged and depressed? Are you starting to wonder if you will ever get better?
  • Are you exhausted? Do you feel like you have no energy and you can’t even deal the basic things in life - like preparing meals, multi-tasking, or enjoying time with friends and family?
  • Are you doing your best with diet and exercise but you cannot lose weight no matter what you try? Maybe you are GAINING weight despite your efforts?
  • Is your hair thinning or falling out?
  • Do you have brain fog and lack of focus? Do you feel like you are getting dumber?...as if something negative is happening to your brain? Do you struggle to retain information or can't seem to find the words to express yourself?
  • Have doctors tried to help, but failed? Or have they told you, "Your thyroid is fine."?
  • Has anxiety crept into your life? 
  • Are you a woman who has experienced miscarriages, infertility, or other gynecological issues like PCOS, heavy bleeding, low sex drive, uterine fibroids, etc?
  • Are you a man who has a low sex drive, low energy, disrupted sleep, poor exercise recovery, and/or plummeting testosterone levels?
  • Are your Hashimoto's antibodies really high and you have no idea how to bring them down and under control?
  • Are you on thyroid hormone replacement but you still have hypothyroid symptoms and your doctor keeps telling you that it isn't your thyroid and that your levels are fine?
  • Do you have a T4 to T3 conversion issue (or a Reverse T3 problem) and your doctor is clueless about how to fix it?
  • Are you feeling like you don't even have the motivation and wherewithal to solve this, even though you know you need to? 

 

IF YOU HAVE SEEN A BUNCH OF DOCTORS BUT YOU ARE STILL SUFFERING...  

It is likely due to one (or both) of these reasons:
  1. You have an uninformed doctor, endocrinologist, or health practitioner who is clueless about how to fix it.
  2. You are uninformed about your condition, and as a result - you cannot help yourself so you cannot help your doctor help you! This is why you need my help.

 

I'M ELLE.

I suffered for about 7 years of my life due to undiagnosed and mistreated hypothyroidism - and also Reverse T3 hypothyroidism. Unfortunately, my story is not unique, because like millions of thyroid patients, I was unable to find a doctor or an endocrinologist who was informed enough to fix my hypothyroidism. Most of you can't either. I get it. That's maybe why you found me. I am so happy to help you finally solve this. It's possible for everyone, it doesn't matter if you have suffered for 10-20 years...you just haven't been in the right hands yet.

For me, hypothyroid symptoms showed up in 2004. After two miserable years of being misdiagnosed and undiagnosed, I finally took my health into my own hands and became my own advocate and patient (and basically my own doctor). It was a scary place to be, feeling neglected by the medical community and the more than 50 highly regarded physicians I had spoken to.

If I had trouble finding a doctor to help me in a major international city like Los Angeles, California - I cannot even imagine how hard it would be to go through this ordeal in the smaller towns and cities throughout the United States and elsewhere in the world.

When I decided to reject the dead-end mainstream medical journey I was on, my body and health were deteriorating so rapidly that I spent every day in full-blown misery, riddled with more than thirty hypothyroid symptoms. Trying to start with a clean slate and be open to all possibilities, I ordered my own lab work, and went about FIXING IT MYSELF.

And it worked. It worked phenomenally well. For a while. Then I was hit with a second bout of hypothyroidism in 2011 called Reverse T3 Hypothyroidism—a once rare though increasingly common thyroid issue that most doctors have no idea how to test for or how to fix.

For the second time in ten years, I was on my own again, having to doctor myself back to health.

Once again, I was successful! I treated my own Reverse T3 hypothyroidism issue with T3-only thyroid hormone replacement.

I have not suffered since!

 

SYMPTOMS

If you are facing any of these hypothyroid symptoms (or others notmentioned!) - seize the moment & let me help you take action now. Arm yourself with the knowledge I offer - to forge the path toward your healthier future.

  • Cold hands/feet and generally being cold regardless of the weather or temperature

  • Insidious weight gain

  • Inability to lose weight no matter what you do

  • Weak arms. Can be general weakness like not being able to hold something heavy for a long time and/or this might manifest as tendonitis or carpal tunnel syndrome

  • Low energy and stamina

  • Serious depression or general malaise. Aside from sadness and despair, hypo-depression sometimes manifests as the feeling of being paralyzed with lack of motivation and being unable to do anything about it, even though you know something is wrong with you. It’s like you just can’t seem to take action to help yourself

  • Needing a nap every day

  • Constipation

  • Sluggish reflexes. I became very clumsy and would knock over everything and bump into everything, even though I was an extremely coordinated, very athletic person

  • Dry cracked skin on heels, ankles, and sometimes it shows up on the inside edge of an index finger and looks like very dry, scaly, cracked skin

  • Hair feels like a rubber band when touched or pulled, yet it breaks easily.

  • Hair loss

  • Loss of curliness in curly or wavy hair

  • Inability to focus and concentrate. Extremely difficult to read, learn, or sustain mental focus, even while watching a film or a TV show. One has to reread paragraphs in order to retain the information. Someone could be talking to you and you have trouble comprehending what they are saying

  • Mixing up words in speech sort of like dyslexia of the mouth. Difficulty remembering words - not being able to speak properly (sometimes slurred speech) or an inability to say the words correctly

  • Lower, deeper voice or scratchy/raspy voice. Clearing your throat often

  • Brain fog and forgetfulness

  • Menstrual irregularities such as heavy bleeding, constant bleeding, uterine fibroids/polyps, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), miserable and long-lasting PMS. Miscarriages or infertility

  • Unhealthy cholesterol results

  • Low body temperature

  • Uncomfortable feeling in the throat/neck area Feeling “choked up,” similar to when you are about to cry or when you feel like you can’t speak in a stressful situation, that “lump in your throat” feeling. Difficulty swallowing, constantly clearing one’s throat, and/ or not wanting clothing to cover or touch the neck.

  • Digestive problems like gas, constipation, abdominal bloating, candida, SIBO, etc.

  • Problems at work or the inability to function well at work

  • Relationship issues with family, friends, romantic partners, work colleagues, etc.

  • Increased or uncontrollable cravings for sugar and carbohydrates

  • Allergies - also related to untreated or mistreated Hashimoto’s.

  • Messy handwriting - stemming from issues with brain-hand-muscle dexterity; it feels hard to get the words from your brain through your hand onto the paper.

  • Heart palpitations. Especially when lying down...it feels as though your heart is pumping and thumping loud and strong in your chest and you are “aware” of your heartbeat like never before, and it feels scary. Often related to adrenals and/or low iron

  • Restless legs. Uncontrollable compulsion to continually readjust one’s legs (Feels like you cannot find a comfortable position). Most noticeable at night

  • Swelling and inflammation

  • Puffy eyes and face upon waking, and a general feeling of overall puffiness and bloat

  • Myxedema - swelling of the skin and underlying tissues is typical of patients hypothyroidism. Discoverable by visual assessment and not being able to pinch a miniscule bit of skin on the outside of your arms, near your shoulders. Instead you're only able to pinch a thick, large portion of skin

  • Stomach fat and a growing “tire” around your waist - thyroid and adrenal related

  • Headaches

  • Constant thirst - and water won’t quench it

  • Feeling as if something wrong is happening to your brain, as if you are getting “dumb” and losing your cognitive abilities

  • Anxiety attacks
