#249. My Doctor Was Wrong About My Thyroid (Yours Might Be Too)

When Your Doctor Misses the Real Problem: A Pharmacist’s Battle With Thyroid, Weight, and Faith

In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Tabatha sits down with Lisa—a pharmacist and Fast to Faith coach—who spent over two decades battling weight gain, brain fog, and fatigue, only to realize her doctors had been missing the bigger picture all along. Despite years on thyroid medication, no one ever tested her for Hashimoto’s… until she took matters into her own hands.

Lisa shares how functional medicine uncovered the gut issues, food triggers, and hormone imbalances that conventional medicine ignored—and how faith gave her the strength to heal from the inside out. If you've ever felt dismissed or stuck in your health journey, this conversation will empower you to become your own advocate and start thriving again.
