Hi All,

 

Lisa, thank you for your information.  So this mom's thyroid is borderline
low - now what?  If the Dr refuses to treat her until she goes completely
below the 'normal' range, what can she do?  Is it ethical for me to suggest
alternative treatments like homeopathy or herbs?  I also deal with low
thyroid that my Dr refuses to treat since it is still within that normal
range - even tho I have symptoms.  I treat myself with an herbal combination
that works quite well.

 

I just don't understand why Dr's refuse to treat people in circumstances
like this - the numbers may be within the 'normal' range but the patient is
having issues.  Sounds to me like reason enough to treat.  I don't get it.is
it simply a cost thing?  

 

Thanks for any and all input.

 

Warmly,

Jaye
