[QUOTE="veggienft, post: 109961, member: 21870"] . Have a read at this page from the American Diabetes Association: [url=http://journal.diabetes.org/clinicaldiabetes/v18n12000/Pg38.htm]Thyroid Disease and Diabetes[/url] Table 1 is significant. If I'm reading it correctly......... It says 6.6% of the general population have thyroid disease. The table says 11% of diabetics have diagnosed thyroid disease. It says roughly 56% of diabetics (513% of 11%) have subclinical thyroid disease. This leaves 44% of diagnosed diabetics who are either thyroid disease free or have diagnosed thyroid disease. Again, 11% of diabetics have diagnosed thyroid disease. This leaves 33% of diabetics with no thyroid disease. It would be good if you could have your thyroid hormones checked while you are having anxiety. Physicians and the public should get used to this. Autoimmune disease is one disease. The immune system loses the ability to distinguish between certain food proteins and antigens. So any time a threshold mass of these food proteins plugs into a body protein receptor, the immune system attacks the receiving tissue. In the immune system specific chemical mechanisms distinguish food proteins from antigen proteins and translate these patterns for an immune response. These mechanisms get broken. In any individual the tissue which gets affected depends on genetic makeup and organ weakness of the individual. (Edited to correct math errors) .. [/QUOTE]
