Hypothyroidism is one of the commonest yet worst treated conditions in Western medicine. This is because today’s doctor only treats blood tests, not patients, even though patients may have all the classic signs and symptoms. This book shows us what those signs and symptoms are and why diagnostic blood tests cannot be relied on in isolation. It shows us the consequences of untreated hypothyroidism at every stage of life and why it is so important to take remedying the problem safely into your own hands if your doctor won’t give you the treatment you need.
