more clearly at a slower tempo.
And the adagio could take more
rhythmic and dynamic freedom,
not of the large-scale big-effect
variety, but of the microscopic,
barely perceptible type.
The Barber quartet, on the

Thyroid Ailments Explained
By DR.. PETER J. sTEINcRoHN

Patient x: Doctor, I sup
pose I should know by now,
but I'm still not sure about
the difference between hy-
perthyroidism and hypothy-
roidiSm. One means over
active and the other means
underactive. But actually,
what is the difference? Does
the size of the thyroid gland
influence the diagnosis? Will
you review the symptoms,
diagnosis, and treatment?
Doctor Y: That's quite a
large order. However, I'll try
to explain it simply.
The thyroid is a butterfly
shaped gland in the neck.
Ordinarily, you can't feel it.
1t SecreteS a hormone which
has much to do with the
normal metaboliSm of the
body. When it pours too much
hormone into the blood you
have the symptoms of hy-
perthyroidism (overactivity):
Nervousness, rapid pulse,
palpitation, eye-stare, weak
ness in the leg muscles, loss
Of weight. If it goes un-
treated. there may be per-
manent heart damage. In
this condition, the thyroid is
usually enlarged, either
smoothly or with knobby
formations called adenoma.
Sometimes the excessive Sc
cretion of the hormone
comes from an easily over
looked enlargement, the size
of a pea.
The diagnosis is often
made by physical examina-
ton alone. But to double
check. we take such tests as
protein bound iodine, basal
metabolism, and radioactive
iodine uptake. Treatment is
usually surgical. Some peo-
pie improve on m e dical
treatment.
Patient x: A friend of
mine had these symptoms
and was helped by an oper-
alton. She has regained 20
of the 80 pounds she lost.
Doctor Y: That usually
happens after tyroidectomy
for hyperthyroidism. But hy-
pothyroidism is something
else agaion. The gland doesn't

of mental acuity, irritability,

slow pulse. When we become
suspicious, we recommend
the various tests mentioned
above in diagnosis.
For example, if the basal
metabolic rate is 80 and the
proteinbound iodine is be-
low normal, the doctor can
make a diagnosis of hypo-
thyroidism (underactive thy
roid). In this case the treat
ment is not operation, but
giving thyroid extract to
make up for the deficiency.
Within months, the patient
loses his dullness, gains
weight, his hair stops falling
out and he begins to feel
like a normal individual
again.
Patient x: 1 See It's
mainly a question of whether
the thyroid puts out too

And treatment consists of
restoring normal balance
again.
Silent resentment is bad.
and getting something out
of your system by a temper
outburst (if not too severe)
sometimes is better for your
heart and high blood pres
sure. The trouble is that
temper, once it flares, is
difficult to control. When
that happens, the sudden
overburdening of the circu-
latory system may be a lot
worse than being "inwardly"
angry for a while.
I have no doubt that
even tempered individuals
are healthier and live longer
than the resenters and those
who are in the habit of
blowing their tops. Un-
fortunately, it is so easy to
rationalize, and yet so diff
ficult to control your
