immune problems

[Guest guest]

Hi Kathleen,

Don't know if this is anything that you have been going through or not but I

have just been diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease which I guess is a fairly

common problem with women that have thyroid problems. Basically it affects your

immune system as it attacks the anti-bodies. Here is a link that will explain

it better. I almost exactly went down the symptom list. Was really having

problems with the legs & hips being very painful. Also, I was REALLY getting

concerned about the memory. Kept doing the " clock " test to make sure I was not

getting alzheimers, can laugh now but it was very scary at the time. So it was

bad enough that I made a dr's appt. Anyway, just something to think about,

especially for the ladies who are getting " finer " as time passes & if you have

thyroid problems.
