Hello @speedy and welcome to Mayo Connect. You have posted an interesting idea. At Mayo Connect, we have previously had conversations on Tumeric, please see https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/turmeric/?pg=3#comment-42377 for some of our members' comments. We would be interested in knowing if you are interested in this for yourself personally or for a friend or family member? Are you taking Synthroid now? Teresa

@speedy I am glad that you shared some more about your question. Here are some Members of Connect who have shared information about their use of Tumeric, @lisa54 and @bonniecanby. @vonbaron36. I hope that they will join you in this conversation. I see from your post that you took Tumeric about three weeks ago and stopped because you felt that you were having side-effects. Since you stopped the Tumeric, have the side-effects ceased or are they diminished? Also, did you discuss this with your doctor? Teresa
Side effects have ceased.. Started Turmeric without consulting my MD.
Thanks
I have taken both for three years.
Have you noticed any changes?
What is your daily dosage?
Why are you taking Synthroid?
Thanks for responding

Thanks for the reply Teresa. This post was for myself. I'm 74 and had my thyroid gland(cancer)removed at 9.
I starting taking Tumeric three weeks ago and felt energized plus arthritis pain and muscle soreness decreased. This week I felt hyper and was urinating frequently. Stopped taking Turmeric. I'm in great health, 6'1", 208lbs. Work out at YMCA and or walk 7 days each week.
Like the benefits of Turmeric. Any input would be appreciated.
