Hashimoto Disease is to do with a dysfunctional thyroid and there is no known cure. There are no symptoms such as the patient feeling some people give off bad energy or get sick or panic if someone doesn't wash their hands when asked. However, it's possible that the medications the doctor has given this person can have side effects. This person may be being treated for more than one problem such as germ fetish or suffers from anxiety or panic attacks. Because Hashimoto Disease can cause a problem with the immune system it is possible that this person may be on Predisone which can cause a personality change, moon-shaped face, thick neck and weight gain.
If this is a relative, good friend then ask them more questions about how they feel if they are comfortable about talking about it. The more you learn the more you can help. It's no big deal if this person talks about getting bad energy from someone or is upset about someone not washing their hands when asked. Sometimes we just have to accept people we love for the way they are.Hashimoto's disease is a problem with your thyroid gland located in your neck. The thyroid gland makes hormones that control how your body uses energy. When you have Hashimoto's disease, your immune system begins to attack your thyroid gland, causing it to become swollen and irritated. When this happens, your thyroid can't make hormones as it should.
SYMPTOMS:
- Because the thyroid gland may swell when you have Hashimoto's disease, you may have a feeling of fullness or tightness in your throat.
- You may have trouble swallowing food or liquids.
- You might notice a swelling or bump (called a goiter) in the front of your neck.
- You may experience tiredness, forgetfulness, depression, coarse dry skin, slow heartbeat, weight gain, constipation and intolerance to cold.
Hashimoto's disease has no cure. However, your doctor can treat low thyroid function so you probably won't have any long-term effects.
Thyroid medicine can replace the hormones your thyroid gland usually makes. How long you need to take the medicine will depend on the results of your blood tests. For most people, thyroid hormone medicine causes no problems.
Taking your thyroid medicine and having regular blood tests to see how your thyroid gland is working can help prevent symptoms like tiredness, weight gain and constipation.
Hashimoto's has NOTHING to do with bad energy or washing your hands, Hashimoto's thyroiditis is an autoimmune disease. It is inherited, if you have a close family member with "thyroid issues" such as a mother, father, siblings with hyper or hypo thyroid problems it would be a good idea to have it checked out if you are showing symptoms because it CAN be a inherited. Hashimoto's thyroiditis, as I said is an autoimmune disease and can be tested for through blood work. With this disease, your thyroid is attacked by your own immune system (it thinks of it as foreign), eventually leading to hypothyroidism. You may have periods of hyperthyroidism where your thyroid "spurts back to life" prior to this, with excess energy similar to that of Addison's disease, but eventually your own immune system kills your thyroid. You can function with Hashimoto's, most people who have it end up taking Synthroid or Armour thyroid medication.
It is a disease for life that will eventually require you to take medication for life. You can not "catch it" like a virus, it is something that is passed down through your family.

Does Hashimoto's disease induce anemia or does anemia contribute to Hashimoto's disease?
There are different kinds or causes of anemia. What I've noticed about people with Hashimoto's, since it is an autoimmune condition, that they will develop antibodies to other tissues. This leads to a type of anemia that seems to come up quite often, that of a vitamin B12 deficiency anemia. For these people I recommend taking a sublingual form of B12 which bypasses the stomach and enters the blood stream directly. The problem is somehow related to a deficiency of Intrinsic Factor, produced by the stomach cells, which is like a carrier that pulls B12 from the intestines into the body. A lack of this Factor results in low B12 and anemia. There is a product from Metagenics which has Intrinsic Factor mixed with B12 in a single tablet. Dr. Alexander Haskell
