Yes I know - several of the thyroid charities are stakeholders. The doctors using the BMJ article as bona-fide new guidelines are jumping the gun...
Somehow I doubt it, if the patient's TSH was under 20 when last tested. The doctors who've read that article and who think hypothyroidism is...
According to the thyroid forum I read some GPs have read the article in the BMJ about only treating when TSH > 20 and are implementing it already....
There has been a very good Rapid Response to the article in the BMJ given in the first post in this thread :...

Unless I just couldn't see it, it wasn't clear how they were actually testing anything. Blood tests? Urine tests? And what are they actually...
I'm in the UK. If I open the link in a new private window I don't have to pay.

The absurd and utterly sadistic thing about this suggestion that TSH must be > 20 before treating is that the mode (most common value) for TSH for...
Not yet. But I've no doubt it will be implemented here in the not too distant future. To save money for national healthcare organisations, I...
