Today I am thankful for the internet. Without going into tons of details, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis today. I have had thyroid issues for 5 years, but I had no clue what this was. It appears that it's a autoimmune condition in which your immune system attacks an organ in your body. In my case that organ is my thyroid. I have to change my medication and also have to start a gluten free diet. I've been researching all evening on the disease and the gluten free diet. I can't imagine how much harder it would be to find the information without the internet.
