anyone opted for Watch and Wait with indeterminate nodules thy3f? Looking for people with similar previous experience to make up my mind
Doctors recommended total
thyroidectomy
. Because doing hemi will still leave them in the dark about what’s on the other side. My nodules are thy3f, risk of malignancy from 10-30%. I have 70% cgance it’s not cancer but I cannot know for sure.

Partial thyroidectomy and parathyroid glands
Anyone know whether surgeons try to preserve the parathyroid glands associated with the half-thyroid removed during a hemithyroidectomy? I would imagine that they're tricky to preserve so I wouldn't be surprised if they just whip them out along with the half-thyroid being removed.

Latest blood results worsening Hypo symptoms of brain fog & insomnia. Any suggestions welcome.
Partially
thyroidectomy
in 1995 been on thyroxine since 1997. Undermedicated by GP for several years until 2022 when I eventually saw an NHS Endocrinologist who increased my Thyroxine. In 2023 I was given a 6 month trial of T3 which I started in December 2023.

Mounjaro for weight gain after thyroidectomy
He said some weight gain is common, but not alot, which I disagree with as I know many women who have gained 40+ pounds after a
thyroidectomy
. I asked my GP about mounjaro and she thinks it could be really helpful to kick start some weight loss after this.

Accord
Hi I’ve been taking Accord for the last year after taking Northstar since my
thyroidectomy
15 years ago. Over the last 6 weeks I have been having strange symptoms. Lots of burping loads of cattargh. Feeling nauseous. It’s making me feel rotten. Also bad anxiety. I take 125mg per day.

My Research into thyroid tissue growing back after TT🤔
However if your had total TT the chances of your thyroid regenerating is extremely unlikely, in these cases it would be that the
thyroidectomy
had been performed incorrectly .

Fine needle aspiration 🤔
He also noted I was very thyrotoxicosis as my T3, T4 were very high before
thyroidectomy
my antibodies were extremely high and on my scan it took up in both lobs which requires full
thyroidectomy
, which I had in 2019.

Total thyroidectomy, remnants and euthroyx.
The surgeon who performed my total
thyroidectomy
says the remnants won't make a difference on my blood results. Any advise on whether to up my meds or not as I feel so despondent at the moment. Thank you

My thyroid story
Hi I’m Alev and I’m new here, I’ve had thyroid cancer a couple of years back and had a full
thyroidectomy
due to cancer on both sides and spreading to my lymph nodes. To explain my story I need to go back to the beginning about over 10 years ago when I first started having symptoms and problems.

I'm hypothyroid...is this an ok time to do Regenerus Cortisol Saliva Test?
Here is some background info: I had
thyroidectomy
1992 8 weeks ago thyroid test results were shocking! TSH 11.9-------T4 at bottom of range-----T 3 tad in range. Hence levo was increased from 50mcg alternative days, to 50mcg daily. Been on 50 levo daily for 8 weeks now and done retest today.

TSH level increase after total thyroidectomy(8 years ago)
I had a total
thyroidectomy
8 years ago due to papillary carcinoma. Recently, I had a knee surgery and during a subsequent blood test, my TSH level was checked and found to be 4.5. However, I had taken my medication (euthyrox 150mg) on the morning of this blood test.

Has anyone whose tried T3 and NDT felt better on just T4?
A little bit of history -
thyroidectomy
aged 21. More or less fine on just T4 for 20 plus years. I then saw an Endo about parathyroid issues in 2018 at which point he suggested ERFA because he felt lots of my symptoms were related to my thyroid and T3 conversion.

Totally confused
I had a partial
thyroidectomy
about 2010. My thyroid levels were fine for several years but then started dropping into hypothyroidism range. I was put on Levothyroxine at 50mg and was ok for few years. Tested Jan 2023 was ok.
