HI, wonder if anyone or Dr Joshi can help. I have just been to doc with yet another urine/kidney infection. He asked if I had ever had my thyroid tested. Actully I have and it is clear now, after a few ups and downs over the last year, apart from anitbodies which appeared after several months of ITP probs. So, my question is - what is the connection between thyroid and kidneys, why did he ask me that??
