Fed up waiting....
Back in March I had a 2nd
thyroidectomy
. Before the surgery I was steady on 75mcg thyroxine for 10 years with no problems. Now I'm having blood tests every 4-5 week's as my levels are not right. The GPS doubled my dose to 150 in one go. My first TSH was 72.12 range 0.2 to 4.8. Then 22 and then 18.

I had a total
thyroidectomy
5 months ago and was hoping my palpatations would improve but I’m still suffering . I saw a cardiologist yesterday who was utterly unhelpful and dismissed every single symptom I was having.

Post thyroidectomy haematoma
6 weeks ago I had a total
thyroidectomy
but the next day had a haematoma. I'm finding it difficult to get any help with how I'm feeling, I've spoken to my surgeon and tried my local counseling service who won't see me yet as it's too soon. Has anyone else had this happen or know anyone who has?

GP reported my NHS Erfa thyroid prescription to local health authority
Sixteen years after my total
thyroidectomy
, after years of problems with medication and when I am acceptably healthy on Erfa thyroid and T3, my GP has decided that I need to have an NHS consultant's confirmation of my clinical need for my NHS prescription.

T3 withdraw
I have had a total
Thyroidectomy
in 1996. I was 23. I was put on thyroxine, I won't go into detail, but after years of not feeling well I was put on T3. Some Vit D and Iron. I felt totally different a new person that could take on the world.

Enlarged heart
I have typical symptoms of being hypo, partial
thyroidectomy
3 years ago, remaining side now enlarged (goitre confirmed), currently on 100 levo. I have now just been advised I have an enlarged heart, I know this can be caused by thyroid decease, but how likely is this to be the case.

Graves after thyroidectomy
I am confused about all the things that say they help your thyroid, or your thyroid is low or your thyroid is high, after a
thyroidectomy
. If you have no thyroid then what is happening when you take naturethroid? Since there is no thyroid to stimulate. I have not achieved a balance in two years.

Reduction in levothyroxine query
I'd had total
thyroidectomy
in Mid March this year. They want another blood test in 1 month. Any thoughts and how long does your mood be affected? I have stopped eating gluten and only have some goat based dairy. Many thanks

I have Graves, Hyperthyroidism, and Hashimoto's.
There's anti-thyroid medication and some doctors will prescribe it; but the others would prefer
thyroidectomy
, surgery, taking out the thyroid, then you've went from making too much thyroid hormone To making none.

Starting NDT again or supplements
My question is, is it worth me trying NDT again to feel better and lose weight (I’ve now put on 3 stone since my total
thyroidectomy
2 years ago) or add supplements with my levo, or supplements and NDT?
