Your post regarding your research on the use
of antithyroid meds in the treatment of GD
was very informative. I love your positive
attitude and outlook on life. Thank you for
sharing with us.
According to the 1990 edition of The New
Lexicon Webster’s Dictionary, the definition
of remission is (a) forgiveness, such as in the
remission of sins or (b) a decrease in the
magnitude of a force, etc. I use the word
remission to describe my current state where
I have a decrease in the magnitude of GD;
therefore, I consider myself to be in
remission from GD.
I’m sure that we could look in 10 different
dictionaries and come up with 10 different
definitions. But, like Glynis, my positive
attitude allows me to choose the above
mentioned definition.
