A short YouTube interview led by Robert Whitfield MD about how chronic inflammation can cause a functional (inflammation-driven) hypothyroid state by impairing hormone action. A patient describes dizziness, anxiety-like symptoms and palpitations after implant removal and reports having to halve their thyroid medication dose one week after surgery; the patient also notes they did not expect to stop thyroid medicine when implants were removed.
