Partial thyroidectomy
I've been advised to have a
partial
thyroidectomy
by an ENT consultant following a Thy3 test result. It's going to happen soon, I am being fast tracked for surgery, pre-op in 2 days. Found the lump in March but it may have been there for some time. Its about 4cm.

thyroid bloods
hi I always had a higher thyroid reading until I had a
partial
thyroidectomy
. My bloods today are T4 17.2 (12-22) Tsh 0.23 (0.27-4.20) It’s been a while and I’m finding it hard to read this so do you think this is normal ? Thanks

How long does it take to fully recover from a
partial
Thyroidectomy
? Is there anything I can do or take to reduce the swelling at the incision site? Thanks in advance for any responses to my query Regards Purplesane

I had a
partial
thyroidectomy
(left removed) in April 2023. I am on 50mg levothyroxine but I am still not feeling right. I am having trouble regulating my temperature, my hair has tinned a lot. I am tired, ache, have put on weight and feel miserable.

thyroid issues and a fibs???
I have been hypothyroid most of my life and have to take synthroid, due to a
partial
thyroidectomy
in my twenties. I am now 69 and have recently developed a fibs. I also might have apnea; am getting a sleep study done soon...... Are either of these conditions related to a fibs??

Below range neutrophils and hypothyroidism - the Link between…….
I thought it was coincidental that Since becoming hypothyroid due to a
partial
thyroidectomy
, my kappa lambada neutrophil ratio has been consistently testing just below range, My gp was concerned enough to request blood tests every 4 months to keep an eye on it because it could point to a possible

Low T4 still T3 improving
I had a
partial
thyroidectomy
in 1995 But since 2017 had symptoms of Hypothyroidism which my GP ignored until I was admitted to hospital unable to function at all. I eventually saw an Endocrinologist who told me I had been undermedicated for years.

Low Dose Naltrexone
( just for background I developed a goitre in 2021, biopsy came back inconclusive so I had a
partial
thyroidectomy
2/3rds removed, started levothyroxine but despite my dose increasing my antibodies are still off the chart and my symptoms haven’t improved)

high TSH and high T4
I’ve had Hashimotos for 23 years and had a
partial
thyroidectomy
23 years ago so I’m pretty sure I have very little natural thyroid function left so am reliant on what I take. Four years ago after a similar test result I was given a successful trial of T4 and T3 and got a private prescription.

Hyper/hyper thyroidism?
As I had a
partial
thyroidectomy
40 years ago and do not take any thyroid supplementary tablets, any clues as to what may be going on.

Totally confused
I had a
partial
thyroidectomy
about 2010. My thyroid levels were fine for several years but then started dropping into hypothyroidism range. I was put on Levothyroxine at 50mg and was ok for few years. Tested Jan 2023 was ok.

Low T4 & T3 1st Endo follow up soon
I had a
partial
Thyroidectomy
in 1995 & have taken Thyroxine since 1997. I started with symptoms of exhaustion in 2010 after a virus & never really recovered. They got progressively worse which my GP diagnosed depression & anti depressants for. I never took them.

Blood test results advice please
Background recap, I had a
partial
thyroidectomy
(left side removed due to large nodule) in April 2023. No idea why the nodule grew, thankfully it was benign. I have been checking through my last blood test results and in particular re vit D, Ferritin and B12.

Partial thyroidectomy and parathyroid glands
Anyone know whether surgeons try to preserve the parathyroid glands associated with the half-thyroid removed during a hemithyroidectomy? I would imagine that they're tricky to preserve so I wouldn't be surprised if they just whip them out along with the half-thyroid being removed.

New Thyroid Results - Conversion Issue?
Hi, After an emotional Thyroid rollercoaster these past couple years (post
partial
thyroidectomy
12/2/21 in combination with an Endo who doesn't believe in compounded medication), I finally seem to be settling into a medication and dose that works okay.

My Research into thyroid tissue growing back after TT🤔
I was first researching as to whether the mass could be producing thyroid hormones, I went on to a site where an Indian endocrinologist said "in cases of
partial
thyroidectomy
the thyroid can regenerate, and if you had graves it could come back as graves, in that it could be auto immune again.

Just got my updated blood results
Hi all, I have had a
partial
thyroidectomy
, this is my results. My ferretin is severely low and I wanted to ask does low iron <15 cause severe fatigue and tiredness and joint pain as that's what I've been feeling. Not sure if I should take thyroid medication as my iron dropped after the surgery.
