Dr. Ronald Matsusaki decided TSH levels alone were not enough to determine an accurate diagnosis of thyroid disease & that some patients felt better on desiccated thyroid than Synthroid.

How very dare he, eh?

Thanks for posting. It is good to hear of doctors actually helping patients, but what a pity they don't back each other up when they only want good health for their patients.
