Guest guest Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Hi Ladies, I belong to Mary Shomon's, Graves, and NaturalThyroidHormone Thyroid Groups-- Please help us and join in sending this letter to Ladies Home Joural who just advised their readers to have their thyroids radiated or to undergo surgery if they are hypethyroid and over 35. Below find my letter and link to Julie (VP of Publishing) at Ladies Home Journal) Click this link and write your e-mail or re-send mine with your signature: Julie Pinkwater Vice President, Publisher tel 212.551.7153 julie.pinkwater Email Please Help Us Julie - May Issue -Thyroid treatment recommendations Dear Julie: Thyroid conditions have become pandemic among American woman. One of the worst things that can be done in many peoples opinions when it is not necessary is RAI treatment or unnecessary surgery (of course sometimes it is necessary but this is not in the majority of cases). Your article never even mentioned anti-thyroid-medications (atd's) or more popular and safe treatments like Armour and Naturethroid. Please understand that after RAI women can put on 50 lbs and have a plethora of other hard to manage life-long problems and never feel well again. You are in a position to help us. Please provide your viewers with the information you would want if you were stricken with a thyroid condition that could strike down your immune system and destroy your life as you now know it. Please look at this site (the first site listed) which is the thyroid site to many throughout the world. Mary Shomon is considerate " the thyroid guru " . Also to understand how many afflicted woman are reaching out for help look at the last link-- you will see 104 thyroid groups in alone. Then go into one of the more informed group like the second, third and fourth link and mention that RAI or surgery is what your doctor suggested for your hypERthyroid condition and watch the responses you get. See how many women who've suffered or know of the suffering caused by such treatments come to your rescue. You are in a position of tremendous power that can help woman all over the country to save their thyroids. Won't you join us? http://thyroid.about.com/ http://health.NaturalThyroidHormones/? yguid=218907044 http://health.thyroid/ This next link takes you to 104 thyroid links on alone: /search?query=Support+%2B+Thyroid & submit=Search For every person in each of these groups there are hundreds who are having their thyroids destroyed because that is the choice treatment at the moment. They are largely unaware of more informed groups like ours. All of us in these groups that I gave you links for are incredibly grateful that we found out the truth about treatments before it was too late. Frontal labatomies were once choice treatments too. The thyroid only affects every little thing about us, every hormone, out metabolism, our immune system, our hearts, our physical appearance, our muscles, our bones, (and the loss thereof) our ability to work… Please join us in educating the public. Thank you Julie. Paula Jean (Hyperthyroid and so grateful to have my thryroid) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
