Thyroid Disorders and Treatments: Underactive and Overactive Glands: Understandi

Description: Thyroid Disorders and Treatments by James M. Lowrance Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description In this book (approximately 6,025 words in length), I have endeavored to inform the reader with all of the basics regarding hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, including causes, symptoms, diagnosis and treatments for each. I have dedicated slightly more information to hypothyroidism, due to it being present in approximately 80% of thyroid patients. Hyperthyroidism is addressed amply within the information as well. Medical research estimates state that up to half of thyroid disease cases remain undiagnosed. It was my intention to provide facts, minus the fillers that can sometimes accompany information on these subjects. Many readers are simply looking for a good, general education on disorders of thyroid dysfunction and they are less-interested in detailed medical explanations or in numerous research study quotes. Certainly there are readers who enjoy those aspects and I have included this very type of information in other books I have authored. In the chapters of this book, I stick to the essential information that will help to educate readers with the important facts regarding hypothyroid and hyperthyroid conditions. TABLE OF CONTENTS: CHAPTER ONE: Understanding Hypothyroidism: Underactive Thyroid (Hypothyroid Conditions) CHAPTER TWO: Understanding Hyperthyroidism: Overactive Thyroid (Hyperthyroid Conditions) CHAPTER THREE: Understanding Thyroid Hormone Replacement Therapies (The Treatment of Hypothyroid Conditions) CHAPTER FOUR: Is Fibromyalgia Common in Treated Autoimmune Hypothyroidism? (Chronic Muscle Pain in Hypothyroid Patients) CHAPTER FIVE: Types of Hypothyroidism Quiz - - - (Test Your Knowledge about Hypothyroid Types/Causes) CHAPTER SIX: Understanding Thyroid Gland Biopsy and Imaging Tests (When Blood Testing doesnt Tell the Whole Story) DEDICATION: To all of my fellow thyroid patients who take pride in being proactive in their treatments and in being self educated about their diseases. -Jim Lowrance Author Biography I am a husband, father, grandfather and lifetime contract salesman, with experience in health writing that began in 2004. I completed theological studies with Liberty University in 1996. I formerly served as editor and forum moderator of Thyroid Health for a major multi-topic content site and as a general health writer for another, where I achieved Editors Choice Awards for my articles on health subjects. In 2003 I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism; "Hashimotos thyroiditis" being the cause. This autoimmune form of thyroid disease that causes destruction of the thyroid gland resulted in my also developing "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome", due to a compromised immune system with severe co-morbid "Adrenal Fatigue". I also suffered severe anxiety symptoms, including panic attacks early into the onset of Hashimotos thyroiditis (Hashitoxicosis). A common, benign heart murmur I was diagnosed with in my teens called "Mitral Valve Prolapse", also worsened in severity of symptoms, with the development of these other health disorders. My eventual receiving of diagnoses was a difficult process with proper diagnostic testing not being ordered by the first doctors I sought treatment from. These types of issues were inspiration for me to become proactive in my own health care and to self-educate myself on these health disorders, which I have done extensively since 2003. I now enjoy sharing this information with other patients experiencing my same health disorders. Details ISBN 1463730853 ISBN-13 9781463730857 Title Thyroid Disorders and Treatments Author James M.
