This is from Mark Starr, MD's book Hypothyroidism Type 2: The Epidemic.

My research shows that many chronic illnesses including heart disease, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, mental illnesses, Alzheimer's disease, and the explosion of childhood illnesses are largely attributable to Type 2 hypothyroidism.

Type 1 Hypothyroidism is defined as failure of the thyroid gland to produce sufficient amounts of necessary to maintain normal blood levels of those hormones and normal blood levels of the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH).

Type 2 Hypothyroidism is defined as [a] resistance to thyroid hormones at the cellular level.

[In Type 2 hypothyroidism,] Normal amounts of thyroid hormones and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) are detected by the blood tests therefore, blood tests do not detect Type 2 hypothyroidism.

If someone does have an a under-active thyroid or this type 2 would they still get brittle hair/nails, kinda yellowish skin and/or weight gain? Is it possible to not have these symptoms but also have a thyroid problem?

[larryshobbs]

@Frog154 Yes, it is possible to have low thyroid without brittle nails, etc A study by Jacques Hertoghe, MD noted that there are 8 classic symptoms of hypothyroidism. He found: 1. Fatigue in 90% of patients 2. Cold intolerance in 86% 3. Joint and muscle pain (rheumatoid) in 78% 4. Slow achilles reflex in 70% 5. Depression in 61% 6. Muscle cramps in 56% 7. Headache in 55% 8. Constipation in 40% Underarm temperature below 97.8 degrees F before getting out of bed shows low thyroid. Larry Hobbs

Patients are waking up to this. The problem is the medical establishment who often don't want to take this in. They are in the dark ages when it comes to thyroid. Look at the sudden explosion of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome cases after the 70's, I believe many of these patients are untreated hypothyroid and low adrenals. I got this diagnosis, CFS, but we have a family history of thyroid disorders. They were treated "back in the day" when diagnosis was based on symptoms, as well as the treatment.

Thank you for your comment.

The thyroid experts like Broda Barnes, MD, and Mark Starr, MD and Stephen Langer, MD agree with what you are saying.

Broda Barnes, MD, who spent his entire career studying thyroid, found that the current tests are NOT able to diagnose hypothyroidism.

This is one of the problems.

Doctors do a test for thyroid, and say, "Everything's OK," when, in fact, it is not.
