Dear Baron
Nice to speak with you :). I am most interested in this. Has any research been conducted on correlations between childhood dysarthria, or developmental apraxia (condition occurring in childhood where the speech signal sent from the brain is impaired, such as a child wanting to say cat and knowing how to say it, only to mispronounce the word "tab") and thyroid dysfunction? Were you diagnosed with dysarthria as a child or young adult? Generally dysarthria has been paired with conditions such as paresis (impaired movement) or the more severe paralysis (unable to move), usually seen in strokes, head trauma, cerebral palsy or oro-facial anamolies. I currently have 3 students with developmental apraxia-I would be curious to know what their thyroid levels are like now.
Thanks for the information :)
Laurie
it certainly happened to me when i was very symptomatic and only on 30mg of armour. i'm at 90 now and my speech improved
