And as you watch the other cou­ples, they are slow to make the tran­si­tion — ope­ning their eyes in blin­king lethargy, moving slightly away from each other, scan­ning their eyes left and right, figu­ring out how to make the transition…

The above sce­na­rio desc­ri­bes the patients on Armour who’ve gai­ned enough expe­rience to com­pile a site like Stop the Thy­roid Madness…and doc­tors. We are the dan­cers who have made a swift and suc­cess­ful move into the fast and ener­gi­zing new melody…and doc­tors are either still moving to the beat of a slow song, or barely star­ting to blink.

How soon will they catch up?? How soon will they stop lis­te­ning to the rave­nous crows called Phar­ma­ceu­ti­cal Reps who pro­mote their pills like a sideshow Bob pro­mo­ting his new tonic??

How soon will they start making PATIENTS and their litany of symp­toms more impor­tant than black ink spots on a piece of paper called the TSH with it’s erro­neous range??

How soon will they rea­lize that thy­roid patients CAN know what they are tal­king about as far as Armour wor­king, and T4-only meds barely doing the job??

How soon will they accept that WE as patients have paved a NEW ROAD by our experiences??

And my pet peeve — HOW SOON will a few cer­tain health web­site doc­tors STOP giving out LOUSY advice to the poor thy­roid patients who come to their site des­pe­rate for help, only to get the same bull that has been dis­pen­sed for decades??
