Fading
I was diagnosed with hypo following a partial thyroidectomy approximately 3 years ago I am on 125mg of levothyroxine and find that I have a problem with fading out of conversations for seconds where my brain seems to shut down or go to sleep. Very awkward as my job is customer facing. I'm pretty sure

Hi, I posted a week ago about my TSH level and the GPs quaint description of my hard working thyroid which needed to be tested again in 6 months. I took the advice you gave me and went back asking for further tests asap, these are my new results - not fasting as the first test was but again described

My journey to a partial thyroidectomy to remove a multinodular goitre
With a strong family history of thyroid disease I suppose it would be inevitable that I would suffer from the disease as well. 7 years ago as a fun-loving twenty year old I was, like many people that age, looks-obsessed, and wanted gorgeous long hair. My hairdresser unwittingly suggested Kelp as

Thyroid working extra hard?
I have just received the results of some blood tests, taken as I am run down and have severe debilitating joint pain. My GP said this " all normal, except your thyroid seems to be working extra hard so we will test again in 6 months" I was slightly stunned and said is that because of the partial thyroidectomy

Results (with range) why do I still feel so bad? Need op but should I wait 3 months or will I feel worse?? First endo today. Graves.
Hello. I had my first endo app today. I had a partial thyroidectomy 15 years ago, now I'm out of remission for the first time but endo says due to goitre size I need my thyroid removed in full. I have a young baby and although I am really struggling to look after her, I am also breaking my heart over

Thyroid surgeons in Wales? Need a recommendation please.
Has anyone here had a thyroid operation by a particularly good surgeon in Wales? I may soon need a partial thyroidectomy and want to have the best private surgeon possible. I'd rather it was in Wales as that's where I live (south west Wales in fact) but am prepared to travel a moderate distance (to

Anyone have experience of taking 100mg thyroxine when clinically euthyroid as a long term nodule preventative after a partial thyroidectomy?
Will I go all hyperthyroid and get sick? Additionally I'm breastfeeding a tiny baby (8 wks) and wouldn't want to mess my milk supply.

Weight gain after thyroidectomy, please help!
I had a partial thyroidectomy in November, cancer was found so I had the rest of the thyroid removed 4 weeks later. Was on 150mcg but it was upped to 175 at the beginning of Feb. I still feel absolutely shattered all the time, I have gained weight which is really depressing & could just shut myself away
