Opinions please.
I had a partial
thyroidectomy
10 plus yrs ago. I was put straight on to Levo. My remaining thyroid was never given a chance to see if it was sufficient. For years I have gradually put on weight and never felt that Levo was working.

High heart rate post thyroidectomy
I am 4 days post total
thyroidectomy
. I had the op due to being hyperthyroid and being told I couldn’t stay on my medication (PTU) longterm. I also found out 2 days prior to op that I had a 2cm ‘borderline suspicious’ nodule.

Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality after treatment of hyperthyroidism with either radioactive iodine or thyroidectomy
The choice between
thyroidectomy
and radioactive iodine (RAI) to treat hyperthyroidism has long been controversial. (Mind, we must not ignore the possibility of remaining long-term on anti-thyroid medication.)

Getting a definite diagnosis and help
This testing was done in preparation for a
thyroidectomy
I had done in mid 2017. After the thyroid surgery I got a lung infection, despite all the precautions, and took anti biotics. I also took 4 week course of prednisilone before the surgery.

Help with B12 results please
Hi there, i had a total
thyroidectomy
in January for Graves’ disease. I’m on 100mcg Levothyroxine and feel tired all the time, memory problems, can’t think straight, numbness and tingly hand and arm, especially during the night. Could my B12 level be to blame?

Thyroid disease for over 43 years
Had a sub total
thyroidectomy
in 1978 after 3 years of trying to get the levels normal. Was left and never followed up. I assumed I had been "cured". Sixteen years later they discovered I had gone hyperthyroid again and had radioactive iodine treatment.

Thyroidectomy (partial)
I am scheduled for a partial
thyroidectomy
(whole of right side) and was wondering what advice anyone had for the recovery? I have a 6 yr old and a 2 1/2 year old at home. Did you suffer any lasting affects? Did you need levothyroxine?

Am I going mad?
Hi, I have been on Levo since August last year after a partial
thyroidectomy
left me severely hypothyroid. I had been going backwards and forwards to my gp saying that i didn't feel well and I had loads of symptoms which they said were nothing to do with thyroid conditions.

Levothyroxine, pain and Graves disease
Was so miserable (and after my 2nd Endo telling me my thyroid would never be normal) I decided to get a
thyroidectomy
3 months ago. Been on levothyroxine since, 75mcg at first and now 112mcg since my Endo thought I was still too hypo (my Free T4 is 1.5 and TSH is 4.84).
