stay humble biologists. impossible to know even a fraction of things biology is doing

Thank you so much for your support! Hopefully raising awareness will lead to change 🙏

Outstanding reply, Mary!! Very professional and well-stated.
I hope it does some good. You did a GREAT job with this!! 😀

Congratulations 👏 However I do wish the extremely common, chronic condition, Hypothyroidism, which is not being accurately or promptly diagnosed or treated, could be included as one of the conditions receiving your attention. Many patients, mainly women are suffering because of this. Can you help?

Best advice I got. The male doc I’d seen for 2 yrs kept telling me I had allergies & an unhealthy gut biome. Switched to a female doc & diagnosed with hypothyroidism, perimenopause, & and a fibroid cyst that caused heavy periods within the first two visits. She saved my sanity and life.

Preview: Thyroid hormones are members of the large family of iodothyronines and the even larger family of thyronine derivatives, which includes iodothyroacetates and thyronamines as well.

My GP told me, 'the thyroid is simple. A daily pill for life [T4 only] and you'll be fine.'

Yeah right 🤦

As part of a thyroid patient group that approached the GMC about inadequate, outdated training of physicians on hypothyroidism, the GMC said they couldn't help us! Who are they helping?
