About the Book

Whether you?re a newly diagnosed patient, or are a friend or relative of someone suffering from a thyroid disorder, this book offers help. The only text available to provide both the doctor?s and patient?s views, Jones and Bartlett Self Help Health Guides Thyroid Disorders gives you authoritative, practical answers to your questions about both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone struggling with the medical, psychological, or emotional turmoil of this condition. About the Author Dr. Warner M. Burch is Professor of Medicine at Duke University Medical Center where he has been on the faculty in the Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism for over 32 years. He has interviewed and examined over 20,000 individuals with endocrine disease. The photos in this book are those of his clinic patients. He is known as the ?doctor?s doctor,? and astute clinician/teacher, a consummate handyman, and an avid woodworker/craftsman. His favorite person is his wife of 42 years; his favorite book, the Bible; and a favorite past-time, playing hide-and-seek with his eleven grandchildren. Table of Contents Acknowledgments Introduction Part One: The Basics Questions 1-20 provide general information regarding the thyroid, covering questions such as: What is the thyroid? What is free T4? Why is iodine so important? What causes a goiter?

Part Three: Hyperthyroidism Questions 48-76 address hyperthyroidism and related concerns, including: What is Graves? disease? What are signs of hyperthyroidism? What is subacute thyroiditis? My physician diagnosed me with hyperthyroidism and has ordered a thyroid uptake and scan. What do these studies mean? Part Four: Thyroid Nodule Questions 77-100 relate to information you need to know about thyroid nodules, including: What is the best way to evaluate a thyroid nodule?
