Good GP in London who will prescribe T3
I had a thyroid
lobectomy
3 years ago and have been trying to manage my hypothyroidism since. No support from GP, but have seen Dr Peatfield and basically self managed myself.

Feeling confused
He had a successful
lobectomy
in March and they took some nearby lymph nodes which came back clear. He was advised to have four rounds of adjuvant chemotherapy as a double insurance, just to try to sweep up any stray cells that didn't show up on a scan.

Hi, I had a left diagnostic thyroid
lobectomy
on wed after an 8mth history of a growing and changing cyst. My FNA's look mostly benign but my consultant wasn't happy about the growth and changes in the 2mth between fna's. My TFT's were within normal range but had increased since first test.

Long and possibly boring
I am a life long chronic bronchitic, had a
lobectomy
of the left lung at 18, am a non smoker, fairly fit and active (Steps not included), I was just wondering if anyone else's lung function is really inconsistent at the moment, or should I be going to the Doctors.

For the past 5 days I have been recovering from Right thyroid lobectomy. Where my staples are its swollen and sore. Is this normal.
I am due to have the staples removed later today. There seems to be a lumpy area around my staples is this normal. Also The thyroid that was removed as been sent for tests to see if it was cancerous. I have to wait for 4 weeks. is this normal.
