muscle pain after thyroidectomy
hi all, I had a full
thyroidectomy
on the 17th of April this year. The recovery has been a bit slower than I anticipated. I’m experiencing muscle stiffness. It can happen at any time all across my shoulders, neck, higher back, both arms and even my legs randomly.

Avoiding dose reduction, advice appreciated!
Hi, I had a full
thyroidectomy
in 2000 and although it took a little while to stabilise / find the correct dose of levothyroxine for me, I’ve now been taking 125mcg for many years and feel pretty good despite a few issues with my white blood cells which is another matter… I have an annual blood test

Please help me understand T3 etc as a medication
In May this year I had
thyroidectomy
and given thyroxine: all was well until the heat intolerance started again mid June and this week my face is breaking out in small blisters. Is this connected to thyroxine dosage / brand ?

Interpret blood test results
I had a
thyroidectomy
in 2018, and do keep a close eye on dosage of Levo and blood test results. Having just done tests, I think I should probably lower the dose slightly, and would be interested to see if any of you knowledgeable people out there are in agreement.... or not!

Had surgical
thyroidectomy
20 years ago. All psychiatric doctors medications have had no impact or improvement. Trans cranial magnetic stimulation and ketamine injections have not helped. Food doesn’t like food, loosing weight and have no energy.

Results of my scan
But good news on the parathyroid issue, looks like another neck op, if it's safe enough for her to rummage around after full
thyroidectomy
👍

buying thyroxine
I’ve had a
thyroidectomy
and get prescribed a couple month worth at a time but I do not trust that it will always be readily available here in Germany and would like a supply.

Advice urgently needed: Endo reducing levo dose yet again based on flawed blood results.
Hello everyone I had
thyroidectomy
1992 and since then been on levothyroxine. Roughly, 6 weeks ago levo dose was reduced by GP from 75/50mcg alternate days, to 50mcg daily due to T4 being over range.

TSH query
Hi everyone, my daughter is amazingly pregnant 🎉 despite having cancer and full
thyroidectomy
. Her TSH was always suppressed prior to this but is now raised. Was 4.5 then 3.5 and last one 3.7. They have increased her thyroxine again. Any other thing she could be doing to help bring it down??

Thyroid Function Results
Serum free T4 level Result 15.9 pmol/L Serum TSH level Result 0.62 mU/L Serum vitamin B12 Result 253 ng/L I apparently had thyroiditis as well as the cancer but that was only identified post
thyroidectomy
. Consequently I was unable to have RAL.

Thyroid tests
I have Graves disease since 2007 and had
thyroidectomy
in 2019. I have felt fine for the last 4 years on levothyroxine (75mcg Monday to Saturday, 50mcg on Sundays). I've recently developed digestive issues with some indigestion and morning diarrhea or loose stool at best.

Private Endocrinologists
Does anyone have a particular recommendation for a private endo on here. I have recently received the lists from TUK and I’m tempted to go with a female doctor in Bristol as she is a hypo sufferer too, so at least knows our plight. I don’t have a thyroid now, after 2 partial thyroidectomies and ablation
