Rob called today: he mentioned has been getting treated for a hypo thyroid for stress since May 2007. I had (and am still being treated) for Graves Disease which is a hyper thyroid issue.
Hashimoto's Thyroiditis is a type of autoimmune thyroid disease in which the immune system attacks and destroys the thyroid gland.
Graves' Disease is a type of autoimmune disease that causes over-activity of the thyroid gland, causing hyperthyroidism. This over-activity is also sometimes called "toxic diffuse goiter."
