Short and Sweet – Listen to latest interview of Janie Bowthorpe

JANIE in front of books July 2014Hello to all my fellow thyroid patient friends!

I, Janie, have taken a break from the STTM  blog after the release of the fabulous Stop the Thyroid Madness II book. And it’s time to return!!

Here’s the short and sweet reason I’m writing this blog…

Listen to Kirstin Costello of Wellness Talk Radio interview me!! I think we both did a great job!  

And once you do, spread the word by sharing the link below. Send this to your family and friends. Post it on Facebook. Let’s help reach all our fellow thyroid patients who need to learn from over a decade of thyroid patient experiences and wisdom in the treatment of hypothyroidism, adrenal fatigue/insufficiency issues, low iron and so much more.

P.S. Have you read the new Stop the Thyroid Madness II book? You should.

No, this new book does not “replace” the original revised and very detailed STTM book. The latter will always have brilliant details of patient experiences and wisdom found nowhere else.

But the new STTM II book is giving you the following:

1) an excellent companion to the first book.

2) information that only certain medical practitioners can give you.

3) a strong message to all doctors since it’s written by their very colleagues.

In other words, if other practitioners continue to bash Natural Desiccated Thyroid or T3 or refer to it as “poison”, think the TSH is a great diagnostic tool to diagnose or dose by, don’t believe in low cortisol, and more…they will have to be bashing their own colleagues’ wisdom as contained on these pages.

The authors of the new STTM II book include Paige Adams FNP, Geoffrey T. Bouc MD (owner of website I want my T3!), Jeffrey Dach MD (jeffreydachmd.com), Lena D. Edwards MD, Andrew H. Heyman MD (in Virginia), Carla Heiser RDN, Paula H. Luber MD, Benjamin D. Lynch MD (aka Ben Lynch of the MTHFR website), William D. Trumbower MD, Philip L. Roberts MD, Yusuf (JP) Saleeby MD, Laura R. Stone MD, Nguyen D. Phan MD, and James C. Yang, MD.

1-Screen Shot 2014-08-13 at 5.22.27 PMWhat do these people have in common: Adams, Bouc, Dach, Edwards, Heyman, Heiser, Luber, Lynch, Phan, Roberts, Saleeby, Stone, Trumbower and Yang? 

Answer:  Brilliance in thought, courage in action, intelligent reasoning, and a willingness to learn from their patients as medical practitioners.

And that is all exactly why each of them was chosen to contribute as an author to a new Stop the Thyroid Madness book, titled

Stop the Thyroid Madness II: How thyroid experts are challenging ineffective treatments and improving the lives of patients

Each of them are medical practitioners who strive to….

  • create a patient-centered practice and personalized method of treatment based on the symphony between the thyroid and all other bodily systems
  • understand that treatment of thyroid disease is more than the use of a single synthetic medication and a pituitary hormone lab result.
  • have the courage to question the basic assumptions held by the traditional medical community as to what constitutes good thyroid treatment
  • listen and learn from their patients.

Why else did I choose these particular practitioners for the book?

First and foremost, it was based on patient reports. The majority of these professionals were reported by thyroid patients to be the better cream of the crop in the medical field.

Could I have chosen others?

Yes. There are others of whom patients have reported they like! But serendipity led me to each one of these masterful professionals and it has all played out like a well-tuned chorus.

How is this book different than the revised STTM book?

The revised STTM will forever stand out as a compilation of highly important and life-changing experiences and wisdom of thyroid patients worldwide.

The new STTM II book brings the minds and brilliance of medical professionals into the mix, not only giving you more details that only a trained professional can give, but the book can also be seen as a practitioner-to-practitioner book, as well. THIS is a book that will end the refrain among certain doctors “Who is Janie Bowthorpe and where is her medical degree?” (i.e. as if only someone with a medical degree can know something important medically!).

THIS is the book that you can give your doctor since it’s written by his very colleagues!

THIS is the book that will play a dynamic role in changing the worldwide medical mindset about the proper treatment of thyroid disease.

Thank you, Jeffrey Dach, MD

img_0276 When I work up this morning and later got on my computer, I read an email which informed me that Dr.  Jeffrey Dach had reviewed the Stop the Thyroid Madness book in a surprise article which came out today: www.opednews.com/articles/A-Review-of-Stop-the-Thyro-by-Jeffrey-Dach-090218-801.html

Yes, I write on the same site, yet had no idea he was going to do this…

You can also see my response to his review, on his blog, here: http://jeffreydach.com/2009/02/06/stop-the-thyroid-madness-by-jamie-bowthorpe.aspx#Comment

Humble thanks, Dr. Dach.  With the shared experiences of thousands of hypothyroid patients around the world, I climbed a steep mountain to get that book out–a labor of love and the firm commitment to educate patients because of a medical community which has been keeping us sick.  Stop the Thyroid Madness!
