13 months post thyroidectomy fatigue
I can't seem to find the right dose. Hair loss, dry skin, puffy face, sirens in ears!, severe fatigue.
I was on 75 for 4 days, 88 three days. TSH was 1.16. Up from .69. I felt better and then BAM after 8 weeks terrible body spasms, and more. TSH was 6.01! Doctors: back to 88 for 6 days and 75

Good source of t3
I'm 10 years from having total
thyroidectomy
. T4 only suppression treatment for Papillary Cancer. I've established, through another post and my blood results, that my T4 percentage isnt good and my coversion to T3 is poor.

Total thyroidectomy - anyone have a positive story ?
Hey everyone - I’m very nervous about having a total
thyroidectomy
in mid February. I have seen so many horror stories. Do any of you have an experience that didn’t turn sour ?

Levothyroxine brands
Since the
thyroidectomy
I just keep gaining weight and am now at 73kgs. I know I do not overeat and eat as healthily as possible and exercise. Recent Medichecks showed all ok and that even my TSH had begun to register. I am on Accord Levo alternating daily 75 and 100 .

Endo no longer wants to see me.
Total
thyroidectomy
was done in July 2022. My endo said I no longer need to go to him anymore and any scripts I can just get from my local doctor. He wouldn't discuss the long term prognosis of the thyroid tissue regrowth.

thyroidectomy
in June 2022.I am having conversion problems ,even with a very over-range T4.I know proprananol can reduce T4 to T3 conversion and am looking to try and wean off it. My GP put me on 20mg 3x a day as a migraine preventative.

any secondary cancers after thyroidectomy?
I’m just wondering if anyone has been diagnosed with a secondary cancer - particularly renal or bladder - after having thyroid cancer. I have read the chances are raised but I can’t find out by how much. I’m currently undergoing investigation. thank you x

Total thyroidectomy - what to expect?
A family member has just had her thyroid removed. She has Hashimoto's, the thyroid had become very hard and contained pre-cancerous cells. Does anyone have any advice/tips I could pass on to her? What should we expect now? She is not UK based.

Low 9am cortisol?
My 9am blood cortisol has been tested a few times now and the last three tests have been 142nmol/L | 172nmol/L | 192nmol/L (I suspect the most recent one is higher due to having an extremely stressful time before it) I have had a total
thyroidectomy
and take Levo and T3 and my latest results are TSH

total thyroidectomy, 20 years ago
I had a total
thyroidectomy
approximately 20 years ago it was removed because it grew very large and was choking me , it had grown down into my chest cavity, and also around my trachea. I take 150 µg of levothyroxine per day. Apparently I’m in the normal range.
