WARNING: Advising and Recommending dosages of drugs

[Guest guest]

Dear Member

Thyroid Patient Advocacy

Internet Support Forum is set up to give help and support to those who need it

and who have a thyroid problem, either underactive, overactive or thyroid

cancer. Please be assured that not one person here who actively write on the

forum is medically qualified, apart, of course from Dr Mantzourani, and this

means that that not one member is qualified to tell people how much or how

little thyroid/adrenal or any other medications they might need.

Each member is an individual and

as such, has individual needs. What one person takes does NOT mean it is OK for

you to take that amount. Every member has a medically qualified practitioner

who they should consult, prior to changing any of their medications. Other than

that, if members have been driven to self diagnose because their doctor refuses

to give them a proper diagnosis and the treatment they need because their serum

thyroid function tests are within the normal range, they should take the

responsibility to ensure they read all the information they can in our files

section in this forum, or read the information available in our web site.
