Maybe your doctor doesn't know how to treat Hashi (?)

I see you are in Canada - I am too. It seems to be the way it works in our health care system. It wasn't until I saw an endo until I get treated. I think they may be the only ones who can recommend RAI or surgery.

It took me 4 years to see an endo. I only wish I had gotten in quicker.
