SLE, Anorexia
I've had a
thyroidectomy
and adrenal insufficiency since starting Prednisone. I'm going back to my old rheumatologist next week in hopes that he can help me. Any suggestions on how to get calories in would be appreciated.

thyroidectomy
(thyroid cancer). My levothyroxine dose at present 125. T4 result in September was 20, result last week was 23.7. I have to be to be on high dose to keep the tsh low but can't understand why the T4 should be so raised with no change to dosage.

Thyroid lump 20 years after partial thyroidectomy
Hi I had a partial
thyroidectomy
22 years ago when I was 19 as I had a large cyst wrapped around my thyroid which needed to be drained by syringe every 6 months. As far as I'm aware, this hasn't caused subsequent problems until now.

Levythroxine
Hi just asking after a total
thyroidectomy
, can you ever go 1 or 2 days without the levy. For instance I am flying next week, and don’t like the feeling i get off them. On my flight days could I miss my dose out, that would be 2 days missed in 5 days. But I would resume normally once I get home.

Miserable all the time
Was hyperthyroid till I had my
thyroidectomy
in 2014. One month later gained 10 lb. 3 years later I have gained approximately 35 lb total. Can't seem to lose anything. Tired all the time and sometimes feel depressed. Cannot tolerate cold or heat. I have exasperated osteoarthritis on top of it.

National coverage of T3 Fiasco has alerted suffering patients on T4
She sought us out after suffering for decades on T4 only following
thyroidectomy
. Her doctors ignored her when she asked them why she had no energy.

Thyroidectomy and menopause test?
Tomorrow afternoon (thursday 23rd) I am having blood tests.. -TSH , Vitamin D. Is there any point asking for FSH to see where I am regarding menopause? I stopped taking POP the day of my op 7 weeks ago. No signs of a period. But my hormones will be all over the shop. Any advice? x

Anyone having these thyroidectomy issues?
I had a
thyroidectomy
a little over a year ago and along with the
thyroidectomy
Ive gained 30 pounds and inherited achilles tendonitis and extensor tendonitist (tops and back of both feet) and both of these issues will trade places, its seems every few weeks.

Searching for alterative to <redacted website>
I had a
Thyroidectomy
in my thirties. I have repeatedly and successfully been supplied with Erfa Thyroid from <redacted website> when my primary healthcare docs haven´t had the guts to renew my prescription. Sadly, I noticed this pharmacy now were out of stock.

Starting T3 tomorrow. Advice?
Hi all, I saw the endocrinologist today for the first time and since I have had a
thyroidectomy
he agreed to give me T3 with my T4 as I am suffering more and more from hypothyroidism. I was on 150mg of levothyroxin up to today. Tomorrow I am to take 100mg of levo and 20mg of T3.

POST THRYOIDECTOMY FIRST BLOOD RESULTS ~ PLEASE HELP!
I had a total
thyroidectomy
6 weeks ago and have just picked up a copy of my blood results. I understood that it was to be a "full blood count" and thought it would include T3 and T4 but I have only had TSH levels tested!

Nocturnal high blood pressure after thyroidectomy
My mom has a total
thyroidectomy
done about 6 weeks ago. About 3 weeks ago, she seems to start having nocturnal high blood pressure on and off. BP would be 150-170 / 95-110. I like to ask if this can be caused by high TSH and low FT3?

15yr old girl with Hashimotos, and now cancer and complete thyroidectomy
Hello folks, My last posts were when my daughter was going to have her first surgery but things have moved on dramatically since then and I wondered if anyone knows if when she has her entire thyroid removed she will still have the autoimmune response somewhere else in her body. Reading the posts here
