Daughter 16 had a hemithyroidectomy. The removed nodule was cancerous
We were offered a full
thyroidectomy
but we didn't opt for it. The poor girl will have to go through it again. We don't know yet. Never thought I would be dealing with this in my life. But alas.... Love & Regards

Am I getting too much Levothyroxine post-thyroidectomy?
I had a partial
thyroidectomy
in 1979 (when I was 26) because of a large nodule.

Naturethroid versus Levo' & T3
I remember when I was first given Levo' after my
thyroidectomy
I did not fare very well as I did not convert. Is there anybody out there in the same predicament, and how did you switch over? Thank you

TSH Level - Lower Dosage
Hi all, I had a near-full
thyroidectomy
in December 2014 and have been taking Levo since. I initially started on 150mcg but the doctor increased it in 2016 to 175mcg.

Fasting for thyroid labs
I am a thyroid cancer survivor after a total
thyroidectomy
. I have never posted anything on this forum just mostly stalked ;). I have been feeling terrible for awhile and in November I found out that my fT3 was very low which would explain it.

at a young age due to papillary cancer.

Total thyroidectomy struggle
I had a total
thyroidectomy
in January 2018 for abnormal results from fnb after developing a lump. I had 3 cysts, 2 large and 1 small and the discussion was made to remove the whole thyroid. Surgery went well, extended stay in hospital due to post op bleeding. Home late on day 2.

Does a papillary tumour mean it was cancer?
Hello, So there was an incidental finding of a 5mm papillary tumour found inside my thyroid when they examined it after my total
thyroidectomy
. Does this mean it was cancer? I've been diagnosed with Graves' Disease for nearly 4 years and never had an ultrasound.

HYPOTHYROID or HYPERTHYROID???
I had total
thyroidectomy
August 2017 for multinodular nodules. Biopsy showed papillary carcinoma, so I had total
thyroidectomy
August 2017. It has been a struggle since surgery. The first two weeks after surgery, I felt the best in four years.

Test Results
My
thyroidectomy
was done 11 years ago due to Graves disease and I was treated after only with T4. Last 6 months I am using ERFA NDT 2x60mcg a day..The test was done in Finland, so the lab range can vary. The last dose of NDT was taken 24hrs before the blood test.

Cancerous tumour
I went for my post op yesterday, it’s now roughly 3 weeks since total
thyroidectomy
. The specialist told me they found a tumour ( cancerous) within the thyroid. I was so shocked I didn’t really hear much of what he said after that. He said a cancer support nurse will call me next week.
