The above article is correct, these websites are grossly misleading people with the all manner of symptoms they attribute to hypothyroidism, brainwashing people into believing they have this condition and advice that is simply damned right dangerous and they should be shut down.

Why would they imagine the BTA/RCP would consult them in any guidelines or statements, they have no medical qualifications whatsoever and do not know the true meaning of hypothyroidism.

These people are making money out of their claims, preying on the vulnerable and deliberatly trying to confuse the medical profession by using these brainwashed people as a weapon.

How anyone can claim to have spent 20-30 years in ill health due to undiagnosed hypothyroidism is beyond a joke, you simply could not have survived that long.

Fact - before blood tests you declined into myxedema and if it was recognised you were lucky and treated, failing that you slipped into death.

If only these people suffered and knew the true symptoms of hypothyroidism, rather than continually putting down the very people who are medically qualified and working to prevent suffering.
