James Lowrance is a husband, father, grandfather and lifetime contract salesman, with experience in health writing that began in 2004. He completed theological studies with Liberty University in 1996. James formerly served as editor and forum moderator of Thyroid Health for a major multi-topic content site and as a general health writer for another, where he received the ‘Editor's Choice Awards’ for his articles on health subjects. In 2003 he was diagnosed with hypothyroidism; "Hashimoto's Thyroiditis" being the cause. This autoimmune form of thyroid disease that causes destruction of the thyroid gland resulted in his also developing "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome", due to a compromised immune system with severe co-morbid "Adrenal Fatigue". He also suffered severe anxiety symptoms, including panic attacks early into the onset of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (Hashitoxicosis). A common heart murmur he was diagnosed with in his teens called "Mitral Valve Prolapse", also worsened in severity of symptoms, with the development of these other health disorders. His eventual receiving of diagnoses was a difficult process with proper diagnostic testing not being ordered by the first doctors he sought treatment from. These types of issues were inspiration for him to become proactive in his own health care and to self-educate himself on these health disorders, which he has done extensively since 2003. He now enjoys sharing this information with other patients experiencing the same health disorders.
