Partial thyroidectomy on Tuesday would love some advice and tips please...?
Hi there! Well it seems like I have been waiting forever for this op and it's nearly here. I can't lie, I'm quite nervous and trying my best to stay positive and keep calm. My biopsy showed 3 in diagnosis so it was recommended to remove the right side where the nodules are etc. My main concern is that

Help Us Raise Awareness
So at the age of 24 I'd decided enough was enough, and opted for a
thyroidectomy
. I knew that this would result in hypothyroidism. However, it was the right choice, as I had developed Graves’ disease. The side-affects weren't as aggressive, and I always struggled medication wise.

Total thyroidectomy, now diagnosed with polycemthmia
I had total
thyroidectomy
a year and 4 months ago. Now my blood work is showing polycemthmia. So I have to be referred to a hemotologist oncologist. What can this be from. Anybody ever experienced this.

Hypothyroidism and foods to avoid
I suffered from Hyperthyroidism in my mid thirties, had partial
thyroidectomy
and thereafter Radio-active Iodine as I was forming a Goitre again again and still Hyperthyroid. After the Iodine I went from Hyper to Hypothyroid after several years.

Iodine after Total Thyroidectomy
Hi I had a TT in 2011 but a scan last August reveal 2 bits of thyroid tissue around important nerves which the Endo said was consistent with the operation. How would this affect my iodine intake, or my medication for that matter? Your advice is very much appreciated. Nadine

THYROIDECTOMY
10years ago...recently been getting shingles so my immune system is low. I work with the elderly so I was entitled to a flu voucher. many thanks.

If iron low but ferritin overloaded will thyroxine be utilised?
I also had a test for: Thyroglobulin 8.6 ug/L (Laboratory statement: Thyroglobulin is only useful in patients who have had a complete
thyroidectomy
for previous thyroid cancer. If this patient has not had a complete
thyroidectomy
then this result is uninterpretable.)

Thyroid Removal and Kidney Pain
Though they are sure it is nothing to do with the
Thyroidectomy
. Can this be right? Anyone had kidney issues? Can Thyroxine have an impact? Any advice appreciated.

Pain between shoulder blades. Connected to thyroid nodule?
The other reason for re- trialling it again is that I am being urged to have a partial
thyroidectomy
due to large nodule and if I need thyroxine after this then need to know if I feel well on it.

Some questions...
Hi there, I'm scheduled to have a partial
thyroidectomy
in the future( going to see endo today for apt to find out more). The consultant has said that because I'm only having half of my thyroid removed that hopefully I won't have to have medication.

FNA pros and cons
As a bit of background, I had a partial
thyroidectomy
in May, and a follicular carcinoma was found in the removed part. No further cancers were found after the TT. I've been on 60mcg T3 since, and been pretty well. Many thanks.

Advice please!?
I had a total
thyroidectomy
a year ago and have been taking levothyroxine since. The gp keeps changing my dose up and down and my levels have been up and down. I am currently taking 100mg.
