INDUSTRY INSIGHT Norwin YOUR HEALTH SPONSORED CONTENT SUSPECT THYROID? Wellness So Do We! So Do We FEELING WORN OUT Hi, I'm Dr. Susan Plank, D.C. and many are suffering from thyroid related fatigue, constipation and weight gain only to be told their thyroid function is normal. In my experience, only testing thyroid stimulating hormone known as, TSH, is not enough to give a clear picture of thyroid function. BOWEL IRREGULARITY Insurance coverage limitations and outdated lab ranges are leaving many undiagnosed, frustrated and wondering. Additional testing which includes iodine, T3, reverse, free and total and T4 free and total are invaluable in revealing undiagnosed thyroid dysfunction. WEIGHT GAIN Testing for thyroid autoimmune disease such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Grave's disease can also reveal overlooked causes of thyroid symptoms, which would otherwise go undetected. A simple blood test and it's interpretation using updated laboratory norms may end your frustration!
