I hope that every child in Japan is given comprehensive thyroid blood testing including at the minimum TSH, Free T4, Free T3 and thyroid antibodies. Their thyroid function should be regularly tested on an ongoing basis.
私は日本の子供たちを心配しています。どのような甲状腺血液検査が実施されているのでしょうか?どのような甲状腺の薬が使われているのでしょう か?TSH(甲状腺刺激ホルモン)は、西洋医学で、甲状腺の診療や治療の基本となるものです。しかし、この検査一つでは、甲状腺の状態の全体像はつかめま せん。私は、日本にいる子供たちすべてが、少なくとも、フリー T4, フリーT3、甲状腺抗体を含めた、総合的な甲状腺血液検査を受けるべきだと思っています。また今後継続して定期的に甲状腺の機能検査をするべきです。
I am concerned for the children in Japan. What thyroid blood testing has been conducted? What thyroid drug treatments are being used? TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) is the gold standard for the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid conditions in mainstream medicine. However this one test does not provide a complete picture of the thyroid condition. I hope that every child in Japan is given comprehensive thyroid blood testing including at the minimum TSH, Free T4, Free T3 and thyroid antibodies. Their thyroid function should be regularly tested on an ongoing basis.
甲状腺異常が私たちの健康、特に子供たちへの健康にリスクとなっていることは、多くの科学論文が証明するところであり、それにもかかわらずこの問題に対しての意識の欠如が広くみられます。甲状腺ホルモンは、子供たちの成長や発達に不可欠なものです。
The scientific literature provides ample proof that thyroid disorders are a danger to our health especially the health of our children, yet the lack of awareness is pervasive. Thyroid hormones are critical for a child’s growth and development.
甲状腺結節やのう胞を持っている子供の中には症状を呈さない子供さんもいます。中には甲状腺機能促進の症状 (体重減少、脈拍の増加、神経過敏、不眠)が出る子供もいますし、甲状腺機能低下(体重増加、疲労、脱毛、便秘)等の症状が出る子供もいます。 また、甲状腺機能低下と甲状腺機能促進と両方の症状がサイクルとなって繰り返される子供も出るでしょう。日本では、子供たちのこれらの症状に留意すべきだ と思います。
Some of the children with thyroid cysts and nodules will present with no symptoms. Some will present with hyperthyroidism symptoms (such as weight loss, fast pulse, nervousness, insomnia), others with hypothyroidism (such as weight gain, fatigue, hair loss, constipation). Then there will be others who cycle between hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism symptoms. It is important for the Japanese community to watch their children for these symptoms.

The most popular article on Hypothyroid Mom is the post 300+ Hypothyroidism Symptoms. This post has received 3,800 Facebook Likes. It shows very clearly how low thyroid function has the power to affect our health. Unfortunately a lack of awareness about thyroid conditions is pervasive around the world. I hope this article reaches the Japanese community so that they are all aware of the potential signs of hypothyroidism.
2011年3月11日の原子炉メルトダウンの後、福島の多くの子供たちは避難しませんでした。そして今、福島で結節やのう胞が見つかっている女子では半数以上に及ぶのです。この文書を読んで私は涙が溢れました。
Many children in Fukushima were not evacuated after the nuclear meltdown in March 2011. Now the number of Fukushima young girls found to have thyroid cysts and nodules is over 50%. This documentary had me in tears.
国際甲状腺連盟では、世界中で最大3億もの甲状腺疾病を抱える人がいると見積もっています。ところが、このうちの半数以上は、自分たちの状態に気付 いていないというのです。福島原発事故での壊滅的な影響を考えれば、この見積もりよりも多くの人々が甲状腺の問題を抱えているのではないかと考えます。http://www.thyroidweek.com/
The Thyroid Federation International estimates there are up to 300 million thyroid sufferers worldwide, yet over half are unaware of their condition. Given the devastating effects of the Fukushima nuclear disaster, my worry is that there are many more people than estimated. I am determined to find each and every one of them.

どうもありがとうございました。Thank you very much for including my Hypothyroid Mom article here to help spread awareness about the dangers of thyroid disease for Japanese children given the devastating effects of Fukushima.
ReplyDeleteどういたしまして、とても大事な情報ですよね。 キャンペーンがんばってください。
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure. You shared with us very important information. Good luck to your campaign work! Mia
Thank you very much for your blog and all the information for mothers to help protect their children. Some mothers who evacuated decided to put their thoughts together in Memoirs of Women Migrants, which is also used to raise funds for thyroid assessment. I think you are can find it on the mothers' website.
