Question: What is the affect of not having a Thyroid gland!?
Answers:
your thyroid controls your metabolism, so you would be cold, constipated, fuzzy thinking, uncoordinated, unsafe to drive, muscle cramps, restless legs etc ( look at mayoclinic!.com under hypothyroid) and finally, if your TSH got high enough, you would go into a coma and die!. I have no thyroid, and had radiation to kill any remaining thyroid cells, and all I have to do is take one little pill first thing in the morning with water, not eat for at least 1/2 hour and take my calcium at least 4 hours later and I am totally fine!Www@Answer-Health@Com
