■ BeyondBracelets - Autoimmune Disease (Part of my Life)

I figured I'd just do a "quick" video explaining a little bit more about what I have going on in my life. I don't share much with everyone but I figured I should give a little more than I have so my followers would know a bit about me/my life.

I'll update with health and/or random stuff. I'm not promising to update every day but when I feel like it chances are I will.

I love the idea of you having a little dwarf face-my children call me Dwarfie, not Mum. I am 54 and look much younger! Hey let me laugh with you not at you.

Know what you mean about not liking to hear yourself. I slur quite often and wonder if I sound drunk.

[BeyondBracelets]

@gilbertduck Yeah, I end up slurring here and there because my mouth won't keep pace with my brain. I know what I want to say but sometimes I forget mid sentence. It can be funny but most of the time I just get angry at myself for it. (Especially when I'm making a video to teach and half way through I start messing up every other word.)

Being ill sucks... I'm sorry to hear you've been battling your own health for 30 years. It's a long time to deal with such an ordeal.

This is kind of private so yeah

[BeyondBracelets]

@cailincurrie2243 This isn't all that private. Anyone who has ever met me for more than five seconds knows I'm very sick. Unfortunately on camera I hide it so when I go a week without tutorials or more some get angry at me for being idle while I'm out "Partying and having fun" when the truth is I'm "Sleeping and visiting doctors" so I decided to talk about it.

I have the same thing as you, is just beginning, but, i know how it feels. I had a treatment with homeophatic remedies, it really helped me, it controls the hypofisis, that is the whole gland where the tyroid is located. I need to get plenty of vitamins, specially the liquid ones, pills are hard to digest. In my case, i dont gain weight but all the opposite. very very low weight and skinny. Maybe you may want to try some natural options instead of the traditional. hope you get better.

[BeyondBracelets]

@amacardo Yeah... you've got the hyper-thyroid instead of the hypo-thyroid. Both are awful. Sometimes I wish I had the hyperthyroid because it seems easier to be thin BUT then you need to be scared of wasting away so I'm not sure which is the lesser evil in that case. They both are scary in their own way.

I'm not sure if hypo could be controlled naturally since I need the hormones... from what I've heard the natural thyroid hormones are very irregular and pretty dangerous.

Hey, I have Systemic lupus, Fibro Sticky blood and Ehlers Danlos. Been ill 30 years, both adult children are the same. It is bizarre isn't it?

Never able to plan, have about one hour of useful life a day. Know what you are going through. Also with numb arms. You have talent and teach well. It takes bravery to talk about yourself, Well Done!

@BeyondBracelets I am sorry it took so long to reply, I didn't notice that youtube tells me when people reply to my things. Kinda cool. And yeah I would never be able to eat 1,200 calories in less I went out to eat. And at that point it is half a burger if I can eat that much. I am lactose Intolerant, and if you eat any dairy and get a pain about where you gut sits, you most likely have it too. I get really sick if I drink any milk. And I can't eat yogurt or ice cream. So I understand! See ya!
