Just had my blood test results. In comparison to pre RFA I can see the my post T3 and T4 are now in the normal range which must be why I’m feeling a lot calmer all round.

Sorry, but what is RFA? Did you forget to post your results? People would be better able to advise you if you posted them, with ranges. :)

OK, just read on your last post what RFA is. Sorry for my ignorance!

That's very interesting. Perhaps you would care to tell us how it went. I doubt many people know anything about it - me included! :)

Hi ...You are not alone RFA is quite new treatment which I can recommend if you have goitres.

I don't have a thyroid, destroyed by Hashi's. But it still interests me to know how it's done. :)

Hi

If you check out my earlier posts and posts by Anma it will tell you more about RFA.

That is amazing news, Rachelvc! I am very happy to read this!

What reduction have you had in size of modules please? I’m looking into having this atm.

Hi on average the 3 nodules we’re shrunk by 85%. I have noticed that I am no longer choking on food and that I am getting much more air in my lungs and therefore oxygen and loads more energy. Very pleased with results.

Amazing results . Thank you
