Thyroidectomy for Graves Disease
I’ve learned so much about Grave’s disease and TED here. This popped up on Medscape today: https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/1001236? Know Your Options: Thyroidectomy for Graves Disease. It’s lengthy, and a pretty good discussion of options, including their frustration that they are only treating

Unraveling the molecular architecture of autoimmune thyroid diseases at spatial resolution
This appears to be an amazing paper - if you want to understand exactly what happens, where, in Graves' Disease and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. Incredible number of images, lots of text - needs a slightly darkened room and lots of time! I've only just seen it so have nothing more to add at this stage.

RFA on 130mm goitre?
Hi all Well I have a large goitre on one side (approx 130mm) and a slightly enlarged goitre on the other side. Two years ago I noticed it and eventually saw a consultant that wanted to remove it. It's causing significant deviation of the wind pipe. I then heard about RFA and today after waiting 12 months

Stopping Block and Replace
After 8 long years I have decided to try stopping BR ( 5mg. Carbimazole and 75 mcg. Levo ) to check for remission. Just come back from GP appoint. that unexpectedly went well ( usually try and avoid them for thyroid issues) I chose a GP trainer hoping he might know a bit more about AITD. Receptionist

Neurologists with awareness of Thyroid conditions/thyroid associated conditions.
Hi, I am looking to find a Neurologist with some expertise in the Thyroid, since many of my symptoms appear to have a neurological base. Please PM me with any names you would recommend. Thanks!

No thyroid
Hi, all the posts are about thyroid problems and taking levo for underactive thyroid, I'm taking levo 50mg and 75mg on alternate days. Can anyone tell me if taking tiromel or the unipharma tablets would be any use fo r someone who has had a total thyroidectomy. At the moment I feel as though I'm sleeping
