If you want to know why those suffering from Fibromyalgia are repeated tested for Hypothyroidism, or why thyroid dysfunction is so frequently diagnosed prior to the development of the more debilitating symptoms of Fibromyalgia, please read
CHRONIC FLUORIDE POISONING Q&A, which was published in Earth Clinic's August Newsletter. To all those with Fibromyalgia who told us to focus on the link to Hypothyroidism we thank you for being so passionate about this connection in your questionnaires!
We strongly support the work of those physicians and researchers who focus their attention on the thyroid connection to Fibromyalgia, including:
Dr. John C. Lowe M.D., Director of Research,
Fibromyalgia Foundation of America
Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum, M.D., Medical Director,
Fibromyalgia & Fatigue Centers, Inc.
