Understanding the symptoms of thyroid issues can be really confusing, especially when you search and find different answers than what you are experiencing. In today’s episode Dr. Rebecca dives into the symptoms that can confuse you if you have antibodies (Hashimotos or Grave’s disease) and what they mean.

In this episode she dives into: 

• The bewildering symptoms of heart palpitations, anxiety, and overheating in hypothyroid patients.

• She also explores "Hashitoxicosis," where the destruction of thyroid cells leads to transient hyperthyroid symptoms in hypothyroid patients.

• The autoimmune nature of most thyroid disorders and the medical system's frequent oversight of the root cause.

• The significance of addressing thyroid antibodies and the systemic nature of thyroid autoimmunity.

• Real-life case studies demonstrating how unmanaged thyroid antibodies can lead to severe health issues.

• The interconnectedness of thyroid health with overall body systems and the potential for developing other autoimmune disorders if left untreated.

• The critical need for comprehensive thyroid testing and patient advocacy within the medical system.

Dr. Warren emphasizes the importance of understanding your thyroid condition beyond just medication and advocates for a holistic approach to health. Tune in as Dr. Warren explains why merely taking thyroid hormones isn't a cure and shares proactive steps to support your thyroid health and overall well-being.
