Do you have thyroid disease?

International Thyroid Awareness Week falls on May 25-31 and aims to increase awareness of thyroid diseases.

AROUND the world, more than 200 million people have problems with their thyroid glands. But over 50% are not aware of this because some forms of the disease may be silent. Although we do not have good figures for Malaysia, there is no reason to believe that the pattern here will be any different.
