neck congestion

[vivienneferreira]

hello , I'm finding whenever I increase my levothyroxine my thyroid feels a little congested each time I don't feel overmedicated in any way

[milkwoman]

I don't understand... How can your thyroid feel congested?

when I swallow it feels a bit swollen its gone now just seems to happen somtimes

[milkwoman in reply to vivienneferreira]

Oh, hmmmm. Do you have nodules? They can swell and shrink (not sure what causes either). It could also be your lymph nodes. The can get inflamed when you are fighting a virus. Have you mentioned this to your doctor?

I don't think I have nodules ill mention it when I'm there next although she doesn't really know a lot about the thyroid
