90th American Thyroid Association Meeting

[diogenes]

The American Thyroid Association is holding its annual meeting as a virtual event on September 30th- October 3rd.

This item is interesting, It shows that in the US and certain members in the UK that a basic change is being talked about regarding the value of FT3 in diagnosis and T3 or related T3-substitutes as a prescription for thyroid disease. Looks as if the present beliefs are changing. Our group won't be mentioned I'm certain.

Treatments for Hypothyroidism-A Changing Paradigm

Jacqueline Jonklaas, MD, PhD, “How to Use LT3 + LT4 today”

Colin Dayan, MA, FRCP, PhD, “Clinical trials under way”

Antonio Bianco, MD, PhD, “New Formulations of Liothyronine”

It sounds like progress. I hope it might it influence things here. Sorry they don’t acknowledge the important work you have done, it’s a poor show on their part.

[diogenes Remembering in reply to TSH110]

I may well in that case politely remind them.

[TaraJR in reply to diogenes]

Please do, on behalf of all of us on here!

I hope that eventually they will recognise your work as we do on this website!!! 🙏🙏🙏

Hi diogenes - Where can I see what’s been written? These don’t work as links (or am I doing something wrong?)

[diogenes Remembering in reply to Jacs]

All that is written is announcement of the event and the headlines of prospective talks as I posted. Postings are invited but of course not yet available.

[TaraJR]

Very much wish I could 'attend', but unfortunately the cost to join is prohibitive

[Jacs]

🙄 silly me! thanks

Let's hope that this knowledge becomes more widespread in the thyroid treating community.
