Allergic to oral iodine has levoroxine got iodine or anything similar in it ?
I searched allergy to Iodene and they say you can't be allergic to it, I can assure them I was definitely allergic as they stopped the treatment and I was made to have part
thyroidectomy
and put on carbimizole and propranolol till I had settled down for them to operate .

help with interpreting results
Had total
thyroidectomy
in Jan 2017, before that was hyperthyroid on carbimazole and had nodule that FNA could not determine. As a result 9 months later surgeon removed thyroid, biopsy no cancer just very inflamed. Put on levothyroxine 125mg per day.

Consultation after blood test
Thyroid problems are in the family, my sister had a
thyroidectomy
as did my mum who also had Pernicous Anaemia. I have been told I definitely don't have that. Sorry it is so long but hopefully someone can tell me if I am over-reacting.

Carbimazole and liver problems
The endo encouraged to opt for
thyroidectomy
(which i'm still not happy about!) and referred me to surgeons last year who I am still under. They've found it really hard to stabalise my thryoid but finally in the last couple of months its started to normalise and drop becoming slightly hypo.

thyroidectomy
on 100 levo tsh 6.9(0.4- 4) ft4 11 (10-22)ft3 3.6. Doctors in hospital telling me dizziness and nausea not a symptom of thyroid ?? Ordered a MRI of brain 😖 feeling really overwhelmed. Levo is making me sicker and my endo won't listen.

1st blood test after 14 months on NDT
BTW I'm 67, been on Levo since the age of about 47 and had a partial
thyroidectomy
at the age of 27 (that op never seems to come up in conversations with the doc and I'm sure it must make a difference?) Thanks in advance for any useful info - I go on Friday afternoon :)

Switching from NDT to T4 and suffering...
Backstory: Near Total
Thyroidectomy
in 2004 due to Graves. Was put on 125mcg T4 to start with. Introduced T3 at some point. Was made to come off T3 when I got pregnant with my son in 2009. Stayed on T4 only through that pregnancy and my next pregnancy too.

Thermoablation
My endo can only recommend a total
Thyroidectomy
. I also have COPD and Empyhsemie and there would be a certain risk with the gerneral anaesthetic. I have now found a clinic in Zürich ( I live in Switzerland) where they do thyroid thermo ablation.

Uncomfortable neck
I was referred for
thyroidectomy
by my endocrinologist but the surgeon has refused to do it. He doesn't think it's bad enough to justify the risks. I am in constant discomfort. I have taken the steriods he gave me to try but nothing happened when I took them.

25 years Post Thyroidectomy... still struggling
Diagnosed with thyroid "cancer" (Papillary Carcinoma - now no longer considered cancer? https://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/15/health/thyroid-tumor-cancer-reclassification.html But, the medical science in 1991 thought it cancer. Parathyroids sacrificed in operation as well, so massive calcium supplements
