The Epidemic of False Hypothyroidism Diagnoses Jun 30, 2021

Show notes

On today's episode of the podcast, I'm sharing a conversation I had with Josh Trent about his personal experience being erroneously diagnosed with hypothyroidism. Unfortunately, Josh's story is very similar to the stories we hear in the clinic every week. Hypothyroidism is a real condition, but it's frequently misdiagnosed in functional medicine because of a theory about what TSH and T4 lab ranges should be-- even though research and clinical experience continue to disprove this. If you're wondering about your own hypothyroid diagnosis, lab results, thyroid medication, or how to really get to the bottom of your symptoms and improve your health, I hope you'll listen to this episode. https://drruscio.com/the-epidemic-of-false-hypothyroidism-diagnoses My book Healthy Gut, Healthy You is available at https://drruscio.com/getgutbook/ If you're in need of clinical support, please visit https://austinfm.com/ Looking for more?
