Far too many people are living with misdiagnosed Graves’ or ignored hyperthyroidism and they don’t even know it yet.

I’ve heard and read countless cases of people who were told their fatigue, anxiety, or rapid heartbeat were ‘just stress’, only to later learn that their thyroid was the real issue. Too often, hyperthyroidism and Graves’ disease are missed because doctors rely on limited testing or dismiss subtle symptoms. 

In this episode, I explain why these oversights happen, what red flags to watch for, and how to ask for the right labs. You’ll also hear how small clues like heart palpitations or low cholesterol can point to a bigger thyroid problem. My goal is to help you recognize the signs early and feel confident advocating for your health.

Tune in to uncover how Graves’ and hyperthyroidism are so often misdiagnosed and what you can do right now to avoid becoming one of those stories.
