Here here!!! good post!
I have Subclinical Graves= hyperthyroidism; it runs in my family. My grandmother died before I was born; she was only 53. They didn't know how to treat it then. She died of a "Thyroid Storm".

It imitates BP. Unfortunately, many doctors would prefer to label people BP; as opposed to doing a Thyroid Function Test.

It has explained much to me about my bouts with depression.---thanks for the post!!Pax-theo
