Ideas please
I had a total thyroidectomy 20 years ago for a massive goitre. I had been taking levothyroxine for 20 years prior to the surgery.

Thyroid Nodules - Advice Please 🙏
I'm new here and it's my first time posting. It was noticed I had a large nodule on my thyroid while having a CT scan for an unrelated issue 5 weeks ago. I can feel a large lump on the right hand side of my neck which is also visible and an ultrasound scan has since confirmed there are several nodules

Hello everyone, I've posted here before about some of the issues I have with fatigue and depression, and someone has suggested to test for thyroid issues. I now have an appointment with the doctor to ask for the thyroid test, but would be really great if I know exactly what I need to ask to be tested
