I have an underactive thyro..

9 years ago i was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid, and now i take 150mcg a day. last summer i started to get white patches on my skin, and ended up going to see the doc, i was told i might have vitilgo, which after the shock of having another autoimmune disease, i got on and started to take the meds. but i still have to wait for the summer to come, before they diagnose me with it, [to see if patches come back]. i was just wondering if the more auto immune diseases you have, does it affect the way your immune system works. or stop it working aswell, any ideas of boosting it up?

apart from vit c and echineaca?

well would you believe i have under active thyroid diagnosed two years ago I'm on 100 mcg levothyroidoxine a day also last summer had white patches on my neck and torso after being on hols, doctor said it was vitilgo and there was no treatment so just keep out of the sun not for it to be so noticeable. i would like to know what meds you have for this? Ive taken echineaca from time to time but don't think it helps that much.

auto immune is a supressor of the immune system. speak to your doctor about how it affects you since each person responds differently. mind over matter is the best treatment for day to day problems.
