Patients with thyroid diseases can experience complications despite being treated for their thyroid disorders. Some complications may be related to inadequate treatment that is in need of being better-optimized while other complications arise due to the disease itself and must be treated as a seperate health disorder.In this book I have endeavored to address the more common complications seen in thyroid patients and the treatments that are commonly recommended for them. I also relate my personal experience with some of these thyroid disease related complications and the treatments I undertook to resolve them.Included in the chapters are discussions on hair loss, diminished sex drive, adrenal fatigue, weight gain, diabetes risk and prevention and much more.This book is not intended to be an extensive manual but is intended to contain information most often sought by laypersons on the subject.

In 2003 I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism; "Hashimoto's 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 Hashimoto's thyroiditis (Hashitoxicosis). A common 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. I formerly served as editor and forum moderator of Thyroid Health for a major multi-topic content website (BellaOnline) and as a general health writer for another, where I received Editor's Choice Awards for my articles on health subjects.
