Hypo with High Blood Pressure
I'm waiting for total
thyroidectomy
as I have nodules on both sides. There is a +40week waiting list in East Sussex for any thyroid operations. Out of the blue I have developed high blood pressure. Neck is so tender but doc says it's blood pressure and not related to thyroid.

Partial thyroidectomy done
Had a right sided
thyroidectomy
yesterday morning due to large goitre which needed to be removed for diagnostic tests. Have been told to book blood tests in approximately 2 weeks time. Notice he's only asked for Tsh, T4, maybe T3 but not sure what the form said.

T3 in Greece
Has a total
thyroidectomy
and on t4. In the UK where my TSH is "normal" but tested T3 which is low. Retaining water, gaining weight, itching, and getting depressed. Desperately wanting to try some t3. I know about other factors and all tested fine. Some of you know about t3 in Greece.

Vitamin & Mineral supplements
I had a
Thyroidectomy
and only on Levo. I thought that I would try to balance my nutrients before trying the T3 route. Thank you.

ADVICE - PLEASE HELP
I had a total
thyroidectomy
in 2009 as I was on the highest dose of Carbimazole and Beta blockers which did nothing for me at all.. After my surgery I started my journey on a MASSIVE 300mcg of Levothyroxine. I kept on this dose for approximately 4-5 years.

Stress levels after Thyroidectomy
Hi all, just waiting on my latest blood test results and wondering how you deal with see saw emotions? I've handed in my notice at work because I just can't handle stress. I'm freaking out at minor issues and getting so upset with things my partner thinks I'm going mad 😥 I'm trying really hard to be

Anybody experience losing balance and falling to the ground while having hyperthyroidism?
Hi everyone, I am 25 now and had a full
thyroidectomy
last year after two failed radioactive treatments. Now I am on 100 mg thyroxine. I was first diagnosed with hyperthyroidism when I was in high school around age 17-18.

How do I request these blood tests if they don't show on the form
After a partial
thyroidectomy
on Monday I have been requested to get bloods redone on 14th August so 2 weeks after the operation. As consultant had only selected TSH and T4 I asked if, as my insurance company were paying I could have more tests done.

Thyroidectomy advice/stories?
I have discussed it with my Endo and I am going to have a
thyroidectomy
after I get married in Spring time next year before I start trying for a family. Does anyone have any advice? I hope I am doing the right thing. :)

Anyone else become sensitive to side effects of medicines after thyroidectomy?
Has anyone else had a partial or total
thyroidectomy
and found they've become very reactive to side effects of medicines? This includes changes to Levothyroxine but other drugs too. In particular joint and muscle pain as a side effect.

Primary or acquired hypothyroidism
As I have had a complete
thyroidectomy
I thought I had Primary Hypothyroidism. My GP has (finally) referred me to an NHS end and said I have acquired hypothyroid. Is this correct.

NDT update 1, also weight query
I also weighed myself on Friday and I was 11 stone 13lb (I'm 5ft 8 and before my
thyroidectomy
I was always 10st 10lb), I've just weighed myself now and after 3 days I've lost 5 pound, something I have struggled to do since my op. Is this normal for weight loss to happen so fast?

Positive replies please for life after thyroidectomy after having graves
In June it was decided after the carbimazole affecting my liver I should have RAI or
thyroidectomy
. I decided to go for RAI and came off my medication the week before as instructed.

What can I expect after surgery
I am having a right 3rd
thyroidectomy
on .Monday and I am slightly freaking out on how rough I am going to feel afterwards. I have had loads of operations due to a botched epidural which damaged discs in my spine but I've never had a throat operation before.
