Kimberly,
From what I’ve read, you are absolutely correct. I can’t find the link but it was suggested that in Japan it was a very, very strict protocol that went on over a period of years with very thorough and detailed methods that required constant tracking of the patient and levels to a very minute degree. It was suggested that here they may not have been adhered to as strictly and therefore unreplicable…or it’s related to sushi somehow maybe lol I don’t know
It may not increase my chance at remission, I don’t know, but if at the very least, it can make things more reasonable for me, then I’m content with that.
Actually now thinking about it, there is a condition associated with Grave’s, Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis, that strikes primarily men and of Asian decent. I won’t post the link cause it’s a WIKI but it talks about a gene mutation et al, so there may actually be more to what you are saying about Japan?
