The Thyroid Gland regulates major structures throughout the body including the immune system, nervous system, cholesterol, fat and growth hormones. Approximately 30 million Americans are living with thyroid disorders, but roughly 50% of those cases are either underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed. Types of thyroid disorders include hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, goiters, nodules, and cancer.
Because of the wide-ranging impact of the thyroid on the body, those affected by thyroid disorders can experience an array of symptoms. Symptoms include fatigue, weight fluctuation, trouble sleeping, and temperature sensitivity, among others, and can make everyday life much more challenging. The healthcare providers at Ellensburg Preferred Integrative Medicine use a holistic approach to help patients achieve their wellness goals. It is for this reason that we offer thyroid management in Ellensburg, alongside our physical medicine and rehabilitation services.
The healthcare providers at Ellensburg Preferred first seek to uncover the root of our patients’ thyroid issues. Historical exams, physical exams blood testing, and diagnostic imaging are all tools we use to achieve an accurate diagnosis. Once the issue is identified, our medical services provider can prescribe the correct medication, recommend lifestyle changes or refer to an Endocrinologist, if necessary. We recommend visiting the American Thyroid Institute for more information on the causes and symptoms of the various disorders mentioned here.
