Do you know the symptoms of a thyroid disorder? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. The thyroid is a gland in the neck, close to your Adams apple. It’s shaped like a butterfly, and although it’s small, it’s very important. Many people lose weight or gain weight, suffer from a rapid heart beat, are moody or fatigued and don’t know why. If you suffer from these or other odd or sudden symptoms, ask your doctor to check your thyroid. Not only should it be physically examined, there are basic labs like TSH, T3 and T4 that can show if the thyroid is functioning properly. The thyroid produces hormones and just like other hormones in the body, they transmit signals to the body on how to behave and how to regulate. If you feel as though somethings not right – schedule an appointment with your doctor today.
