Finally, an article with facts in it
00:23 | Posted by
Louise Sopher
Well done, the Daily Mail: you've finally done it: written an article which tells people what the thyroid actually does, and what it doesn't do when things go wrong.
Well done, the Daily Mail: your article appears to be well-researched; though depressing, it appears to be true.
The article focuses on actress Gena Nolin (of Baywatch) and, of course, on her weight struggles. But it also explains her other symptoms, and says that thyroid disease can lead to serious cases. It highlights how long it takes to get diagnosed. It explains the process of thyroid disease deterioration well.
I'm not sure what different medications Gena Nolin was able to try, or why she tried them, and I wish they pointed out that for most women, on the usual UK-given drug levothyroxine, it takes up to six months to be 'almost symptom-free', not 'three days'.
Still, an altogether positive article for the state of awareness from the Daily Mail. Looks like it will be in the print edition?
Shame I don't usually have any faith in the newspaper: I'd buy a copy to check if I did. But this article may well sway me towards believing that the Daily Mail actually does publish worthwhile stories.
