Holycow, thanks for your well meaning advice. Believe me, I have done my research, as I have suffered with Wilson's Syndrome since I was 15 years old, and I am now 41. I did not "jump into any alternative thyroid treatment" either. I am well aware of the case in Florida involving Dr. Wilson and the death of a patient. This protocol has risks, just like any other protocol, and if a patient is not responsible and careful in the titrating of the thyroid medication, it could be dangerous. The fact that the Florida Board of Medicine "determined that Wilson was prescribing a drug that patients didn't need for a condition that they didn't have", only suggests to me the limited knowledge of the Florida Board of Medicine. I do not expect someone that does not suffer from this disorder to understand. I also do not wish to debate the issue over and over. I expect that very soon someone else will do a double blind study, get published in a peer review journal and change the protocol slightly, and the medical community will embrace something that Dr. Wilson tried to convince them of for several years. In the meantime, a lot of people suffer.
