List members,
 
I posted awhile back, that adding an aspirin a day caused me to have
noticeable hyperthyroid symptoms almost immediately--within two days this
affect was seen.  Then, staying with it, my body balanced out within a week
or two.  Endo states this was due to protein binding of ASA, it will bind
with great affiinity to the thyroid receptors, freeing up more thyroid
hormone.
 
Doctor has ordered a strong NSAID for pleurisy-like pain.  It is Ketoprofen,
a capsule to be taken every 8 hours.
 
Does anyone know if it will have the same affect?  are all NSAIDS protein
bound to some degree?
 
thanks,
Holly
