I think in a way, we are, because we devote a lot more time and research into

our condition. In my physiology class, we barely covered thyroid function. The

only hormones discussed were T3 and T4. No mention of their activity to speak

of. Just a cursory mention of iodine-defiency goiter and outrageous Graves'

illustrations - you know, the TED. I'd be willing to bet physicians don't get

much more, and after they've been in practive awhile, how much do you think they

remember? All their stuff says is to prescribe synthetic T4 - so much per kg.

Any other symptoms mean a " psychiatric disorder " . Blechh.

Just oput of curiosityu what physiology book are you reading? The

one i have does have there method of action in there but not in the

hormone section persay. Look up nucleur receptors that is how the

majority of TH gets used. As faras the T2 info that is coming out

they really look like they use the cell memebrane receptors with the

second messenger system doing the action. What is really funnt abiut

the physiology books is that 1) they do discuss T1 and T2 but only

state that they are non functioning hormones 2) that when placeing

someone on HRT the goal is to make treatment as close as possible to

the bodies natural secretions. I think we both know how lacking they

are when it comes to that second one.

If you want I have some online medical books I can give you the links

to if you like, they go into a little more depth then the physiology

books but are also a little harder to understand.

Some times these books are still used by some professors.

$145 freaking bucks because I couldn't find it used. I'm taking

Biology 201 (Physiology) at my local community college. I'm hoping

to get into the ultrasound program this fall. The book did go into a

little more detail, but my instructor just glossed over the whole

thyroid/parathyroid. We did go over the

pituitary/hypothalamus/endocrine gland axis, though.
