Guest guest Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 Ok, not an expert, don't stand on ceremony, ask in a reasonable calm manner, or at least as resonable as one could be when given this info, why, where, etc. Maybe your doc has some other stuff on his/her plate. We tend to forget that docs are human and while they are supposed to leave their lives out of the office/hospital this doesn't always happen. As we all know thryoid does indeed affect the heart. Maybe get a second opinion. I know because my hyperthroidism was ignored for a year I now have a slight heart defect. Will keep good thoughts for you, Bubbe Gittel************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
