Hyperthyroid

The runaway thyroid runs in my family. 
My dad had his destroyed more than thirty years ago.

I would have thought medical advances 
Had developed a new way to deal with the problem.

But no. Unless you choose an alternative route,
And try to heal the autoimmune disease that causes it,

There’s not much hope. 
Kill the thyroid, then wait for the cascade of

Cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, and a hastened death.
