Some of you may find this amusing. Personally, I find it sad that American

medicine is so bumbling and inept:

Thanks for that, an interesting link..

If it's any consolation it's even worse in Britain with some

considering that a TSH of 10 is a suitable treatment threshold.

That's a Pediatric Endcrinologist told my son when he was in kindergarten. He tested positive for antibodies and his TSH was 8, but he wouldn' treat unless it was over 10. I changed drs., he's 13 now, and my 9 year daughter has hashis also. We really do have a good Ped. ENdo, who believes in Armour (old stuff), and doesn't go by TSH, but frees'. I feel fortunate.
