Hospital appointment
Hello, Hoping someone can help I saw my consultant in March about problems since
thyroidectomy
and was told he would see me again in June but haven’t received any appointment yet. Is it reasonable to start chasing yet for an appointment date? Thank you for any advice

Hashimotos thyroidectomy..
If I were to have a
thyroidectomy
, would my immune system decide to attack something else? I'm positive for TPO antibodies.. I know it might be worth being referred to rhumatology, but let's be honest, it's hard enough getting an appointment.

NHS no longer testing T3??
I have hypothyroidism following a partial
thyroidectomy
in 2016. I’ve not felt ‘well’ since then and have battled with my GP to raise my Levothyroxine. Earlier this year I paid for private TSH, T4 and T3 testing which showed that T4 and T3 were low and I was allowed a 25mg increase in my Levo.

Natural dessicated thyroid (NDT) or alternative to Levo without prescription please
I have been on Levo since 1999 after a partial
thyroidectomy
. I have not felt right since then but as my blood tests always come back within range nothing changes.

Puzzling Labs last 4 years
I ended up having a complete
thyroidectomy
back in 2012 for suspected cancer but turns out it was Hashimoto's. For a few years after my thyroid was removed I was feeling great. Then in late 2015 I started feeling run down with overwhelming fatigue returning intermittently.

Armour Thyroid Meds--I'm Interested in Others Experience~FYI: I Had a Complete Thyroidectomy
Hi all! Yay, my doctor gave me no problems Yesterday May 1st of changing my meds to Armour due to the horrible side effects of Syn/Levo. I'm starting on the lowest dose of 15mg. Who else is on Armour? What brand do you use if not Armour? What dose did you start on and end up on before your numbers leveled

Total thyroidectomy
Hi. I’m two weeks post TT and had a migraine since the evening b4 my op. My voice is weak and it hurts to talk for long plus I feel shattered. Not sure what is caused by my migraine ( I have sumatriptan so I can alleviate it at times) what’s post-op tiredness and what is caused by having no thyroid.

Graves, Thyroidectomy, sore muscles
O never had any of these symptoms before the
Thyroidectomy
two years ago. I Can't stabilize ever. I don't have a doctor that knows anything about Graves? Endos just do diabetes! Now NP THYROID Increased by me from 60 mg. as labs below to 75 mg. NP.

Thyroid homone levels and liver, high alkaline phosphatase
2 years Post
Thyroidectomy
. I am having liver problems now. I have hi alkaline phosphatase of 234, the range is 39 to 117. When I had these labs done I had not taken my NP thyroid 75 mg for 24 hours. Would this have affected my alkaline phosphatase?
