Can you explain Hashimoto's thyroiditis?
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's (TPO ABs at 215). I eliminated gluten, dairy, and soy and started a CellCore detox. After 1 month, my TPO antibodies were down to 180, and within 3 months, I was pregnant after suffering from infertility for over 4 years.

I also feel lethargic after eating chicken or eggs. What should I do?
