Can i ask if anyone with a thyroid complaint is peppered with small red papules, often referred to as cherry anginoma, on their torso?

I have a few. I don't believe it's connected to my hypothyroidism.

I have quite a lot of them unfortunately, some relatively large, which led to an Endo checking me out for Fabry Disease; but I believe they have no connection to thyroid disfunction. They are benign and often age-related - I was probably about your age when mine started popping up.

Thank you, I have been getting them in increasingly amounts over quite a few tears.

This link is worth reading on the subject, and I think it is very reassuring if you are worried about cherry angiomas :
