I do not have a functioning thyroid gland due to radio active iodine obliterating my gland - a proceedure i needed to have - to destroy the pre-cancerous nodules which started growing. I was told back then - 30 years ago - that i needed to take synthroid for the rest of my life. however, taking that little pill daily has not always paved a smooth road for me, as often i have health issues with my thyroid and my TSH numbers are often way out of whack - anyway, having to deal with hypothyroidism for most of my adult life, i see a doctor regularly and i also appreciate reading good, informative books about the thyroid. i found this book to be just that and have added it to my library and would recommend it to others.

I bought this book for my daughter in New York. Too many of the health issues she is dealing with sound like low thyroidism to me, though she has never been treated for it. I wanted her to become more knowledgeable, so I sent her the book. We have to know our bodies and accept responsiblity for our health. We need to look until we find doctors willing to work with us.
