Things have changed significantly in the past ten years for thyroid patients. But what are the biggest thyroid stories or developments that specifically affect thyroid patients? Is oprah's on-again/off-again thyroid problem on the list? What about the ongoing fracas over the "normal" TSH test range? How about the rise of natural thyroid -- and the more recent shortages? I've taken a look back at the years 2000 to 2009, and identified The Top Ten Thyroid Stories of the Decade, the developments I personally believe had the biggest impact on us as people with thyroid disease.What Do You Think?
I want to hear from you as well. As thyroid patients and practitioner, do you agree with my choices? Do you disagree? Do you have other developments or stories you feel should be included on the list? Share your thoughts and input now, and see what other thyroid patients and practitioners have to say.

Some people always read "Twas The Night Before Christmas" every holiday season. Others watch "It's a Wonderful Life." But for regulars here at the Thyroid site, it isn't Christmas unless we feature a beloved piece from America's funniest thyroid patient, Jody LaFerriere. Jody got to wondering...why does Santa only go out once a year? Could he be depressed? And then there's Santa's weight problem....what is THAT all about? Is Santa all about ho ho ho or just ho ho hypo? Could it be that Santa is actually hiding a goiter under that beard? Read Jody LaFerriere's hilarious thyroid patient letter to Santa!
