Left side of neck is swollen not right. Thyroid was removed 9 yrs ago. For past 3 wks I've had n/v,noticeable weight gain, extreme mood swings, and alternate between insomnia and extreme fatigue. Would like to know what to do.

Welcome to the forum, Grannygurl.

Ask your GP to examine your neck and throat and to do a thyroid function test too check you aren't undermedicated. Take your Levothyroxine after the blood test.
