Hashimoto's disease

Today i went back to the doctors and as i expected, I had an auto immune disease known as Hashimoto's disease. Hashimoto's disease is a common cause of hypothyroidism. (underactive thyroid) Immune system cells attack the thyroid gland, causing inflammation. This reduces the thyroid's ability to make hormones. The condition is also called Hashimoto's thyroiditis, chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis or autoimmune thyroiditis. I have had my medication upped to two tablets a day instead of one, as well as bloodtests in six weeks followed by a doctors appointment.
