To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing today on behalf of millions of thyroid patients in the hopes that our plea can reach news and media outlets.
A cottage industry has grown around patients who are tired of having their symptoms dismissed because of undetected and under-treated thyroid issues. A sizable portion of your audience are thyroid patients (1 in 8) who are living with debilitating symptoms and cannot find adequate care. Needless suffering is occurring as the result of inadequate physician training and institutional resistance to new research and methodologies. There is strong evidence to support these claims. On behalf of millions, I am asking that you consider a feature regarding this important cause which affects so many in your audience.
Please view notable individuals and physicians that support this cause on ThyroidChange's website: www.thyroidchange.org/join-our-network.html
ThyroidChange can also supply you with a list of renowned physicians who have agreed to comment on this issue or to be interviewed by any media source. There are also thousands of patients willing to speak to the media regarding the situation and to share their stories.
