Although 20 million Americans are affected by thyroid disease (85 per cent of them women), misinformation about the disease continues to spread. An up-to-date comprehensive resource, this book helps readers understand just what is, and is not, thyroid disease. Including recent medical developments, patient profiles, photos and illustrations, and a section on 'Thyroid Newsmakers' -- from Muhammed Ali to Joe Piscopo -- the book contains answers to all the questions you think of after you leave the doctor's office.
