Just found better link - below:

This could just be a great opportunity to put forward what happens when people

do not get thyroid diagnosis and treatment.........

Website states:

Mental ill health costs the economy £105bn a year - more than the entire NHS

budget1

Mental health accounts for a quarter of all GP consultations1

People with severe mental illness live some 15 years less than their peers1

400,000 people in the UK may have undiagnosed dementia2

Depression is associated with 67 per cent increased mortality from

cardiovascular disease3

70 per cent of people with medically unexplained symptoms also suffer

depression and anxiety disorders

Perhaps we may be the only ones who know that untreated thyroid could do away

with much of this................not all conditions are thyroid related, but

many could be accounted for.

Why do they always have such seminars in London - the Midlands

i.e. Birmingham, would be much more appropriate??? Anybody in London could

attend???

Subject: Mental Health Forum re Long Term

Conditions

For some reason notification of this forum came

to my inbox and I wondered if this could be a good place to push the plight of

under-treated and untreated thyroid and the 'mental health' problem it causes

as well as depression being a symptom of untreated thyroid.

Just a thought.

Top reasons for the third sector to attend

Engage in debate on how to commission quality, patient-focused mental health

services

How the Third Sector can influence the commissioning process

A focus on tackling mental ill health in patients with long-term conditions and

the roll of IAPT

How to maximize opportunities for the Third Sector in the newly-reformed

commissioning process for mental health services

Be update on Mental Health Policy and how it will impact on the patients you

represent and the services you deliver

Be inspired by case studies of innovative partnerships between Third Sector,

the NHS and local authorities to deliver transformational mental health

services

As well as keynote presentations on mental health policy, dementia and the

mental health of those with long-term physical illness, the event will also

give you the perfect opportunity to network and raise the profile of your

organisation with 300 GPs, the future commissioners of mental health services.

Book your place now

Book one of the 100 third sector and local authority places today

This highly anticipated event, taking place on 23 May 2012 in London, is

expected to generate much interest and as there are very limited spaces for the

third sector and local authorities to book at £99 +VAT each, early registration

is strongly recommended to avoid disappointment*.

I will also forward on the email Shelia in case the link doesnt work.

I was thinking that possibly correct diagnosis and treatment of thyroid would

fix many of the long term conditions they speak of.

Afraid London is a bit of a long walk and they dont have any buses from here ;-)

What about anyone turning up with flyers about the consequences of non diagnosis

and lack of treatment due to the rubbish TSH... the 300 scientific docs ....

and direction to tpa website.

Would that be any good.

Looks like There will be some major players at this workshop as well as the 300

doctors

That

would be good - get a team outside the entrance popping an A4 size paper into

the hands of everybody who went in, and written large at the top could be:

URGENT - PLEASE READ: ENDOCRINOLOGISTS IN UK CAUSING

GREAT HARM TO PATIENTS SUFFERING SYMPTOMS OF HYPOTHYROIDISM

HI SHEILA

How many of us are there in the vicinity of London. It would take me about two

hours to get to Hammersmith.

The drugs that they use for ones mental health can in fact cause more serious

problems, and even sudden death.

I also noticed that there are no Thyroid seminars on the agenda.
