Almost Full Circle: A Journey Toward Good Health

June 27, 2017 by Kylie Bevan

‘It all started here, in Queenstown’ my husband chimes in.

Which rather took my breath away.

It had indeed.

Just over five years ago, in late summer, I lay curled in the foetal position on the bathroom floor of a Queenstown hotel, in between bouts of vomiting from the sudden pain.  Absolutely unwilling to miss my 40th birthday present, trekking the Milford Track with hubbie, my parents looking after our children, I somehow struggled onto the transfer boat and along the 4-day hike. Each time the pain took over, every ten minutes or so, I’d assume the foetal position, initially on the dry track, later in the mud, trying to focus on the rain on my face, rather than the wave of agony rising, and thankfully also falling, in my groin.

Always Tired

August 13, 2015 by Kylie Bevan

 

Always Tired

 

“Right through my 20s I scheduled one night a month to watch TV at home. It was non-negotiable. Otherwise it didn’t happen.”

I’m saying this to a new friend in Vanuatu, where we moved three weeks ago. To explain why this otherwise healthy looking person is in bed pretty much every night by 8pm. And is still tired every minute of the day. [Read more…]

Adrenal Fatigue – the what, when, how, why and where

March 5, 2015 by Kylie Bevan

 

Waking tired, amazed that it is morning already.

Getting going only with the help of caffeine and carbohydrates.

And again mid-afternoon. 

Needing to wind down at the end of the day with wine.

Little interest in exercise and/or sex. 

Any of these describe you?

You may be experiencing adrenal fatigue – along with many around you.

Hashimoto’s – what is it, what are the symptoms, and what foods for healing?

October 15, 2014 by Kylie Bevan

What is Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis?

Your thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland at the base of your neck. It produces hormones and is essential for metabolism, body temperature, heart rate, regulating blood calcium and your immune system.

Hashimoto’s is an autoimmune condition where the body is attacking itself, in this case, the thyroid.  Antibodies react with proteins in the thyroid gland, causing damage and eventual destruction.

Hypothyroidism, or underactive thyroid, is commonly caused by Hashimoto’s. Hashimoto’s is often not picked up during medical visits until quite progressed, as requires blood tests for elevated antibodies, in addition to the more typical TSH and T4 tests. Also, the ‘normal’ TSH range is skewed because thyroid conditions are becoming more and more common – especially given it is those who are feeling unwell who are requesting the tests in the first place. So people with ‘normal’ TSH are often told they are perfectly fine.

Common symptoms of Hashimoto’s include fatigue, depression, weight gain/loss, lack of focus, constipation, cold hands/feet, slow reflexes, poor memory – and can lead to pain in muscles and joints, depression, enlarged thyroid gland, high cholesterol, prolonged menstrual cycle, heart disease, osteoporosis and infertility.

Kylie Bevan’s Health Journey

My Health Journey, by Kylie Bevan

Today, I am a fit, active, happy, healthy 41-year old. More so than at any other time in the last 15 years.  Sure, I have an autoimmune condition called Hashimoto’s thyroiditis – my body is confused, and attacking itself. But, with dietary and lifestyle changes, it is improving. I have hopes to send it packing altogether in time.
