Thyroid Nodule Surgery - Advice needed
I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism 2 years ago due to various symptoms and a thyroid nodule. I had RAI and the nodule reduced. I have been hypothyroid since July 2019. In January the nodule returned, it feels like I have something stuck in my throat, it can be painful as well as having a sore throat

For info: Just had a big rant on government survey on women's health
[/i] [i]People should also not be offered
radioactive
iodine
treatment without fully understanding what else they could do to reduce their autoimmune response, and potentially support a healthy functioning thyroid. They should also be made aware of the cancer implications of having RAI treatment.

So had my post op appointment today with my surgeon , who carried out my laparoscopy 3 months ago.. I tried to ask questions.. like why is my pain worse now than it was prior my op? .. his response was 'well I removed the Endo so you shouldn't be in pain' .. I then went on to express that I have to take

Thyroid symptoms and iodine
I have all the symptoms of an underactive thyroid except I am sensitive to hot and cold. My tsh and t4 are normal, but t3 4.0. (Lab scale started at 3.9 ). In June I was much better and had had 2 iodine injections for scans. Does an iodine deficiency cause the same symptoms thanks

Completely lost
Guys. I have hypothyroidism on a cellular level - meaning it is not primary, not secondary, but underactive/unresponsive within the cells. TSH normal, low- end of range t4 and t3. Both levothyroxine and Armour have increased my symptoms and made me very ill as they are not making it into the cells. Endocrinologists

Update on daughter. 9 weeks from global anoxic brain injury. Still on the rollercoaster.
Hi all, not posted for a while but wanted to come on and give an update on my daughter after 9 weeks. She is still classed as pdoc and is unresponsive but is still with us and fighting. She is making eye contact and they have seen some tracking to sound and pictures but only slightly and not consistent

Symptoms but no diagnosis. Frustrating. I've tried everything and would appreciate any kind of advice. Please note this is a very long post.
I started to feel discomfort on the right side below my ribs about a year and a half ago. It wasn't pain as such but more of a discomfort that one should not feel daily. I was drinking heavily at the time; beer, whiskey, tequila. This discomfort has now become chronic that would last for a few hours

What can I do when painkillers don't work?
Hi, I've had chronic pain since childhood (now in my 20s) and I've been on the same 60mg dose of codeine for about 6 years now, as you can imagine it's not worked for a long time /: I've been referred to and seen by the pain clinic, I've had the movement therapy and mindfulness help, and none have helped

Anyone else feeling sick on multi vitamins???? 🥺🤢
I’m convinced my multi vitamin is making me have all day sickness 🙄 anyone else the same? I’m currently on Pregnacare but think the iodine is not agreeing with me . I’ve changed when I take it and always with food but the all day sick is just not going. I’m sick sometimes shortly after I’ve swallowed
