An important part of getting properly diagnosed or treated is maintaing clear communication with your practitioner. If you suspect that you might have a thyroid or related health problem, your first step should be to schedule an appointment with your practitioner. A Risks and Symptoms Checklist can be an important tool to help communicate your concerns. Even if you've been diagnosed and are receiving treatment, a Risks and Symptoms Checklist can be useful in discussing unresolved symptoms and concerns that need to be addressed. Here are Risks and Symptoms Checklists for Hypothyroidism, Hyperthyroidism, Autoimmune Disease, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Fibromyalgia.
