n nIn the United States, it is estimated that over 20 million people have thyroid problems. And of this number, the most common thyroid condition is Hashimotos Disease--a form of hypothyroidism in which the bodys immune system attacks its own thyroid gland. Despite millions of people having this disease, many suffer with life-changing symptoms for years without being diagnosed. And even after diagnosis, many Hashimotos patients continue to experience debilitating effects from this disease. Fatigue, muscle and joint pain, weight gain, headaches, hair loss, and throat/neck pain are some of the commonly occurring symptoms. Thats why endocrinologist and thyroid specialist Dr. Brittany Henderson and patient Allison Futterman joined together to write What You Must Know About Hashimotos Disease. n nRealizing that far too many patients are not getting the information and care they need, the authors created this book to help those who are suffering from this all-too-common form of hypothyroidism. Written in understandable language, the authors give you an insiders view of what you need to know about Hashimotos. The book is divided into three parts. Part 1, Getting to Know Your Thyroid, explains how your thyroid functions, how Hashimotos affects your health, and what signs to look for. Part 2, Testing and Diagnosis, looks at the most reliable tests used to detect Hashimotos, how they work, and what to expect from testing. Part 3, Treatment and Management, discusses the most effective conventional medications as well as those complementary treatments that have proven to be effective. n nUnfortunately, there still remains a lack of understanding of Hashimotos among patients and health professionals alike. As a serious autoimmune disorder, Hashimotos is multifaceted and complex. What You Must Know About Hashimotos Disease provides patients with an invaluable resource that they can rely on at every stage of their journey to greater health.n
