Thyroid Disease

Thyroid_01Are you one of the many people with an undiagnosed thyroid disorder?  It is estimated that 1 in every 3 Canadians has a thyroid disease but as many as half don't know it.

Thyroid diseases include:

  • Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid)
  • Hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid)
  • Graves' Eye Disease
  • Thyroiditis including Hashimoto's Disease
  • Thyroid cancer

For more information, read About Thyroid Disease from the Thyroid Foundation of Canada. 

Also read about thyroid conditions at MyThyroid.com, a site maintained by Dr. Daniel Drucker, University of Toronto, Mount Sinai Hospital.

Check out the Library's recent books about thyroid disease.  To see which branch has a copy of the book and to place a hold, click on the title or cover link;

    My friend has a problem with his thyroid and it’s been a month that he always cough it’s not normal coz almost everyday he says his throat is itching and I think he need to see a doctor.
    And let him know about this and read more so I could share it to him. Thanks for this information. It really helps!
