Hi Michelle. A kind doctor at a hospital where I worked noticed my
eye protrusion in 1989. Like you I have not been treated because my labs
are normal. My doctor said my eyes and enlarged thyroid were cosmetic
problems. I went to an acupunturist on my own. He had not treated this
condition before but I am convinced that the treatment made my eyes retract.
I used deep breathing relaxation and visualized healing energy being sent
through my body to cope with acupunture needles around my eyes. I was
symptom free for about 5 years. Right now my life is very stressful and the
symptoms are back so I am thinking of trying acupunture again.
My internist does not take my story serious because it is not
scientific.
proven. For me it worked and that is what is important.
