I'm a Thyroid Disease Apomediary!

By , About.com GuideSeptember 22, 2008

Follow me on:

Did you know that I'm apparently a thyroid disease "apomediary?" I didn't. (I also had no idea what it was, until I learned about it from Trisha Torrey, our About.com guide to Patient Empowerment.) Trisha has put together an explanation of what these new Health 2.0 terms apomediary and apomediator mean.

Have you checked out Trisha's site, by the way? Her Savvy Patient Toolkit has an incredible wealth of helpful articles and resources for everyone who is trying to navigate through the health care system.
