So I discovered this evening that I've had a five year blonde moment where I had no idea that the thymus and thyroid were different things... I genuinely thought that all the t-cell regulation (to do with the immune system) stuff the thymus does was just another function of the thyroid...
Massive fail. Massive massive fail. So yeah wish me luck for the next few weeks!! (Short post because clearly I have revision to be doing!)
(In my defence a quick google tells me I'm not the only person to get confused here but I'm betting the asker of the below links question wasn't taking med school finals in under 100 hrs time :/ ) http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Are_the_thyroid_and_the_thymus_the_same_thing
