Nodule shrink with T3?
Hi, my mom had a partial
thyroidectomy
a few years ago. since then she is taking NDT and feels good. Her doctor says she has a small nodule on her other part of the thyroid and sent her to ultrasound. I Have research that some people have shrunk this with natural supplements.

Blood test results, any comments please?
Hello, in 1995 I had a subtotal
thyroidectomy
for Graves Disease and I have been on 250 micrograms of levothyroxine for about twenty years now.

GP wants £25 to say if I'm fit to join the gym!
I finally joined the gym today, 6 months after my total
thyroidectomy
. I've put on nearly a stone since and I'm finding it very hard to lose weight. Whilst doing the membership paperwork, I had to declare that I have no thyroid and had surgery 6 months ago.

Need a little hope
I'm 8 months post total
thyroidectomy
because of cancer. I've had many thyroid labs in my life and all were normal. I've been super blessed to have not experienced any health problems for my age, and didn't even have hypo symtems when diagnosed.

Thyroid cancer
I had a total
Thyroidectomy
after having two tumours. I was on T3 at first and this was so much better. I feel totally I'll and just want my life back. I feel that everyone is just letting me go and I need help.

PAPILLARY THYROID CANCER: THE GOOD AND BAD OF THE "GOOD CANCER"
We conducted semi-structured interviews with participants at the pre-operative visit and 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 6 months and 1 year after
thyroidectomy
. We used grounded theory, inductively coding the first 113 interview transcripts with NVivo 11.

Help required thinking of taking T3 for weight loss, fatigue, brain fog & painfull joints.
Hi, I had a subtotal
thyroidectomy
about 12yrs ago and have been on thyroxine since. Now need advice regarding fatigue, painful joints, tiredness, brain fog and weight loss. Looking at at buying T3 to see if that would help me feel better.

Help with Blue Horizon results please
About 15 years ago I had to have a total
thyroidectomy
after my heart rate suddenly went to over 200 bpm. A scan revealed thyroid nodules (non-cancerous) and I was put on carbimozole but couldn't come off it without my heart racing. I was put on 100mcg levo daily.

Thyroid growing back after thyroidectomy
Then in 2011 drs decided best course of action was a complete
thyroidectomy
. Recovery took a while & I was in and out of hospital due to various things after the surgery. All was fine until 2015 I found a lump in my throat/neck, after MRIs & blood tests Dr said my thyroid was growing back.

Thyroid tests
I did a total
thyroidectomy
in January 2016. I would like to know if I should get tested for FT3, FT4 & TSH. Doctors are saying that it is only necessary to test the TSH . Should this be so?

High Cortisol in the morning, T4 medication and Vitamins
I am on T4 medicine due to goiter and
thyroidectomy
for 17 years and doctors refuse to consider changing the medicine? My problem could be that my body does not transfer T4 to T3 but properly rather to RT3.

both hyper and hypo symptoms on T4+T3 combo? Could that be?!?
Graves -
thyroidectomy
- T4 only only worked for a while than crashed into mental and physical meltdown with hypo symptoms 2. Switched to T4/T3 combo, went quite well for more than a year and now feels a crash is around the corner.

Running after a Total thyroidectomy
I love running and have recently restarted but I struggle with my breathing and stamina. Would increasing my meds help?

Thyroid tests
I have had a Total
thyroidectomy
due to large goiter/lump. I'm confused about my medication. I was put on 150mg levothyroxine after op'. This was reduced end of Feb as my T4 was slightly high and my TSH low - T4 26(9-25) TSH 0.02(0.4-4).
