Re: Interesting Fact
It sure seems to be an increasing problem it seems. Too bad we couldn't find the reason why, and try and stop it.

Re: Interesting Fact
When I was 36, was diagnosed with hypothyroidism(God only knows how long I had it). Two years ago diagnosed with Graves.NOw 51.

I really think there needs to be more investigations into this problem.

Re: Interesting Fact
I totally agree. I was only 28 when I was diagnosed. But my Dr. was watching for it and tested me a couple of times of year for it. My grandmother and mother had it is why he watched myself and my sister closely. So far my sister has been very healthy. I will be 49 in Jan. and she will be 50 in Jan. I wish more people would give to these foundations in hope to get more answers.
