In my family, it is dangerous. Maybe it's just because they didn't have the same medicine when my mom was my age. Thyroid problems are all over the place on my mom's side. My mother, all of her siblings, her mother, aunt, grandmother, and great grandmother all had the same or related problems, and that's as far back as she could trace. It was the leading cause that killed her mother at 52. It caused diabetes in my mother's and grandmother's cases. Along with it, for my mom, came lupus, fibromyalgia, MS, and a lot of other things. My mom was sick and bed ridden for the majority of my childhood. And when I was 11, her thyroid levels were perfectly normal the day they found the cancer in her thyroid. Her sister has also had part of her's removed, but I don't know if it was because of cancer. Her other sister and brother both have had problems with their thyroids, but don't want to address it.
So, I'm trying to beat it before I have to lead the life my mom did. I already feel it fucking me up. I'm trying to get an appointment so I can get on the armour pill.
