Okay, here we go again hashimoto’s and epstein-barr virus. You know um i’ve been involved in hashimoto’s literally since the beginning, i think, of when nobody even knew what the word hashimoto’s was because uh i studied with uh dr crossy, and if you don’t know who he is, you can get his book.
He wrote about it in 2009., he was the guy who said: hashimoto’s was actually causing most people’s thyroid problems and um and and the early understanding of it was that epstein-barr virus was the cause.
Then it was. Viral infections are the cause. So i curb these. Viruses. Can can be a trigger uh epstein-barr virus. We’Re going to talk about more can be a trigger. Um cytomegaloviruses can be a trigger, so there’s like six viruses that can be a trigger and that in early on it was this like it’s a viral infection.
It’S a virus in the thyroid and that’s what hashimoto says, and it isn’t even that. Okay, it’s it’s more, that it’s more, that um epstein-barr virus is a is a trigger. So i i i’m personally my personal case for those of you who have never seen me.
I have hashimoto’s and um and it’s kind of an interesting case because i probably got it at 21 years old and uh at 2021. I got mono and i was down for six weeks and i had to cancel an entire athletic season.
I played soccer. I uh played baseball. I wrestled i did. I literally had to cancel an entire year of sports because i was fatigued. I had mono mod is supposed to go away after, like four or five or six weeks, and then you get back to it.
What we now know is is that if you have epstein-barr virus, i mean, if you got mono and you had it for like a year like me and and i went to go on the soccer field like i was gonna be able to play again.
It was like i was like you know, like my legs felt like they were like 500 pounds each. You probably had gotten an epstein-barr infection and developed hashimoto’s at that point in time and for me being athletic.
It was kind of interesting because i never really had quite completely the energy that i had after that again, even when i got better – and i always you know wonder about that – i had sleep more and i and i had to battle my weight.
I mean, and i i stayed pretty active athletically through a lot of my life and yeah. I said i had to battle my weight and i had, and i was always like, had to sleep a lot and then in my 40s i ended up getting stressed and then i ended up getting pneumonia and then that blew up into fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue and A ton of things, one of the things we found out was i had hashimoto’s now in retrospect.
We know that i probably developed it 20 some years earlier and what causes mono is or virus, so that was uh, so this is kind of the flow of it, and this is why you’ve heard a lot about epstein-barr virus and then a couple of years ago, There was a book that came out and by the intuitive psychic.
