A member asked:

What precautions should i take for a speedy recovery from hashimoto's thyroiditis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Life long care: One usually does not fully recover from Hashimoto as it gradually destroys the thyroid gland and one needs to be on replacement therapy for the rest of one's life. See this site for more info. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000371.htm
