  1. Thyroid Disease General Discussion Forum
    Just wanted to give a quick update and ask a couple of questions! I have been medicated for hypothyroidism as the result of a partial thyroidectomy in December 2014.

  7. Thyroid Surgery Discussion Forum
    Hi I have hashi's, subclinical hypo and had a Left PT on 8/13/13 for a 1.2cm suspicious nodule.
