"My Thyroid Disease Story" - A book/eBook By: James M. Lowrance

Sept. 30, 2013 - PRLog -- This is my personal story regarding symptoms, diagnosis and treatment for autoimmune hypothyroidism caused by Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Adrenal Fatigue and other metabolic-related conditions that I developed co-morbid to thyroid disease.

I also share testimony in regard to my symptom struggles including the emotional aspects and difficulty in finding a doctor experienced in treating thyroid disease with related conditions. I also include a chapter regarding my reason for becoming a Thyroid Patient Advocate and the growing importance for public education on thyroid diseases.

It is my hope that my story will inspire other patients to become proactive in obtaining quality care for their health disorders and to partner with their doctors to achieve this. I also hope this e-book will seve to inspire patients with difficult cases of thyroid disease, to achieve coping skills and a better quality-of-life.

NOTE: This ebook is approximately 6,663 words in length. It is not an extensive medical journal but rather contains aspects of information on the subject that most laypersons would be seeking.
