Depending on what time zone you're in, I may or may not get to my doctor with this before you do.
No matter what.... this is very interesting' isn't it?
PS. I like your tag line
Most interesting. Having a thyroid problem isn't the worst medical problem that can befall a person, but it manifests itself in many unpleasant ways over the years. Like irregular heartbeats, tiredness, swollen ankles. The swollen ankles is scary, because that's similar to congestive heart failure.
I'm definitely open to reading more about the research described in this article.
By the way, thanks for your kudos on my tag line. May I suggest here that we all pray to the Lord to guide the researchers into making breakthroughs that will help alleviate and even cure thyroid problems and heart disease.
