Purpose of Site/Disclaimer
The purpose of this site is to encourage people with ongoing issues to educate and advocate for themselves medically.
This purpose of this website is not to give medical advice. I am not qualified to do that. The information found in this website, whether provided by me or shared by a third party, is not intended to be used as a substitute for professional health care or other medical advice. You need to have a health care team that you are working with. You should not rely on the information found here to make decisions about your health or lifestyle without consulting a health professional.
Like most people with Endocrine system problems, my situation, symptoms and issues are different from yours. What has worked or not worked for me, will be different for you. That is the nature of endocrine disorders.
Ultimately, you need to work with and consult with your health care team. As well, you and your family will need to learn to advocate for yourselves. It's too easy to have your symptoms and problems brushed off. Learn to fight back in a professional way, meaning, leave your emotions at the door as much as possible. Yelling and screaming gets you ignored.
