Thyroid Nodules - Advice Please 🙏
I'm new here and it's my first time posting. It was noticed I had a large nodule on my thyroid while having a CT scan for an unrelated issue 5 weeks ago. I can feel a large lump on the right hand side of my neck which is also visible and an ultrasound scan has since confirmed there are several nodules

USP or API sources for different NDT thyroid brands
Hi, I was wondering if anybody has information about which NDT brands use which Desiccated Thyroid Extract (USP or API) sources and where these USP/API sources are manufactured? I am particularly interested to know about Armour, NP and Erfa and even the new brand Adthyza.
