Hypothyroidism causes swelling, constipation, cold intolerance, bradycardia, dry skin, hoarse voice, and slow relaxation of ankle jerks. Hypothyroid individuals can not convert beta carotene into Vitamin A and if the individual is vegetarean, fetures of Vitamin A deficiency can also be found. In this case follicular hyperkeratosis is due to vitamin A deficiency. Bradycardia and puffiness/swelling can also occur in chronic renal failure and this diagnosis must not be missed.(Get a blood urea and creatinine) If Hypothyroidism occurs in early childhood there is mental retardation which makes the child a ‘cretin’. Once mental retardation has set in, supplementation of thyroxin will not be able to correct it. Early diagnosis is very important.

THYROID GLAND, endocrine gland that is situated in the throat below the larynx (voice box); the thyroid secretes hormones vital to metabolism and growth. The gland consists of two oblong lobes lying on either side of the trachea (windpipe) and connected by a narrow band of tissue; in normal adults the thyroid gland weighs 10 to 15 grams (0.4 to 0.5 ounce). The lobes of the gland, as well as the band, consist of numerous tiny sacks called follicles. The shell of each follicle consists of a single layer of cells wrapped in a thin membrane, and each follicle is surrounded by many blood capillaries. The space inside the follicle is filled with a viscous fluid called colloid, which contains mostly thyroglobulin, the storage form of thyroid hormone. There are actually two thyroid hormones, thyroxine (T4, or tetraiodothyronine) and triiodothyronine (T3). Their structure is identical, except that thyroxine has four iodine atoms and triiodothyronine has three. Under normal conditions, the thyroid produces more thyroxine than triiodothyronine. The raw materials needed to form thyroid hormone are iodine and the amino acid tyrosine, both of which are normally found in a persons diet. The iodine is actively taken up from the plasma by thyroid cells, in which it is incorporated into tyrosine molecules within molecules of thyroglobulin. The two hormones are formed by condensation of two iodinated tyrosine molecules within the thyroglobulin, and the thyroglobulin and incorporated thyroid …

Hi, this is Larry Hobbs @ FatNews.com. fatnews.com larryhobbs@fatnews.com This is from Mark Starr, MD’s book Hypothyroidism Type 2: The Epidemic. My research shows that many chronic illnesses including heart disease, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, mental illnesses, Alzheimer’s disease, and the explosion of childhood illnesses are largely attributable to Type 2 hypothyroidism. Type 1 Hypothyroidism is defined as failure of the thyroid gland to produce sufficient amounts of necessary to maintain normal blood levels of those hormones and normal blood levels of the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). Type 2 Hypothyroidism is defined as [a] resistance to thyroid hormones at the cellular level. [In Type 2 hypothyroidism,] Normal amounts of thyroid hormones and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) are detected by the blood tests therefore, blood tests do not detect Type 2 hypothyroidism.

I had the Flu last Novemember and have had chronic fatigue since. I have had two blood tests that point to Hypothyrodism. I haven’t started on meds for it yet because I have also developed serious allergies/allergy-related asthma and I am trying to get that under control first (also started after the flu and thought the chest pain was fatigue related and only after 9mos of complaining, my doctor finally got a clue). I have not had any weight gain so far but I’ve been told that it happens if the problems with the thyroid go undiagnoised long enough. My only concern about this is because a few of the women in my family have been over weight and it has been such a struggle for them for so many years. I am already struggling with debiltating fatigue and allergies I’m not sure I want to add trying to loose weight to the mix either. What has your experience with hypothyroidism and wieght gain/trying to loose the weight been? Any advice?
