Re: Are Thyroid Disorders reversible??

My understanding is that this conservative approach is the norm in Europe as well. Only in the US do we blast away the organ with a nuclear pill before even attempting much safer and more conservative ATDs. In fact, on Graves board I have listened to ladies whose endos told them melodramatically, "YOU WILL DIE if you don't nuke your thyroid immediately!" Underneath all this is the perception, in the US, that the radiation treatment is simply cheaper and therefore preferable. Tweet
