Healthy Me

I never realized how important it is to be proactive about my own health until getting thyroid disease.  Because of the current treatment trend (a T4 only drug called Synthroid or its generic equivalent), too many people are left with hypothyroid symptoms and many doctors just won't listen or believe you.  That's how it was for me.  If you are currently in the same situation, please check out my thyroid blog and check out the links to different web sites that can help you.  They definitely helped me.

If insurance is a problem and you live in North Carolina, check out information for North Carolina health insurance. It is SO important that your thyroid disease be treated effectively to rid yourself of these frustrating and debilitating symptoms.  If YOU feel your body isn't healthy...if YOU feel something just isn't right...find a different doctor and keep pushing until you find one that listens. 

One way to find out if you have a doctor more willing to go outside the status quo (synthetic medications) is to call the pharmacies in your area and ask them which doctors in the area prescribe natural thyroid medication.
