Hello. So I had a VNS placed 6 years ago for my epilepsy. That surgery requires leads to be placed in left side of neck. Depending on how high settings are it can effect your voice. Anyhow. My vitamin d levels have been low for along time. Diagnosed with hypothyroidism about a year ago. All I do is work and sleep. My feet are constantly cold but there are times when I’m hot too. I don’t have a appointment with a endocrinologist for 8 months. So I made a appointment to get a full thyroid panel done with a dr that uses hormone pellets to treat her patients. Has anyone had success with this treatment? I’m currently on 77mg of generic synthroid. Sry for the long post

Great @jaderm. I have no experience in this kind of treatment. But perhaps another member can help you in this respect, sharing his or her experience with you?
All the best!
