Sarah - Hashimotos Thyroiditis
• 52 minMeet Sarah. Back in 2009 Sarah first saw symptoms when she was a fashion buyer, working ridiculous hours (a typical go-getter), and was under a lot of stress. Twelve years later, just THIS year, Sarah was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. Hashimoto’s disease affects 850,000 Australians, 1.5% of men and 7.5.% of women, including me! It’s a disorder that causes the immune system to attack the thyroid gland. The thyroid’s job is to make thyroid hormones, which are secreted into the blood and then carried to every tissue in the body. Thyroid hormones help the body use energy, stay warm and keep the brain, heart, muscles, and other organs working as they should. Sarah still isn’t at the end of the road of her health journey, but she is working hard to get there. She's living in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne with her husband and two beautiful children living a nice slow paced life, looking after her body. If you think you have Hashimoto's Disease, book an appointment with a health care specialist before self-diagnosing.
