Family History Of Hyperthyroidism


sazzie

Recommended Posts

I have just recently realised the link between celiacs and hyperthyroidism.

My Mother, Nanna and great grandma have all had their thyroids removed because of this.

Now i am wondering I am pretty much certain i have celiacs disease (to be confirmed next week) however if i do go gluen free now is it still possible to get hyperthyroidism later on in life?

Just really wanting to know if anyone out there has been diagnosed with celiacs and still been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism later on in lafe after being gluten free?

I have been told by my doctor to expect to get it, however being the first one in my family to be diagnosed with celiacs and reading the links between the two just wondering if it might be possible that i may not get it?

thanks for your input.

Lisa

      In the thread I linked to above, one of our sponsors here sells gluten-free nuts, dried fruits, etc (a coupon that might work for you there is GF20) https://www.tierrafarm.com/

      I’m really sorry you’re dealing with this, and what you’re describing is very real—even if other people can’t see it. Many kids and teens with celiac disease or other autoimmune conditions can have chronic joint and body pain, fatigue, and flares that come and go, which is exactly why it can look “fine one day and awful the next.” That doesn’t mean you’re faking anything. You deserve to be believed and supported, especially at school and at home. It may help to talk with a gastroenterologist or rheumatologist who understands autoimmune pain in teens, and to let a trusted adult help advocate for accommodations when you need them. Wanting to feel like a normal kid makes complete sense—and you’re not alone in feeling this way.

      Don't  let one bad apple spoil the bunch,. as they say. Many health care professionals are doing their jobs the best they can, so it's important to try to work with them in a respectful manner, if when they might be wrong about something.
