    After my primary Dr felt a slight mass I pointed out (not too big, just sort of a bit of fat to me) Friday, on my yearly checkup , she sent me directly to get an ultrasound and an appointment with an Endocrinologist today.

    Hello All, I am new to this site. I have had four biopsies on a single, solid thyroid nodule since 2006. The results of the first 3 biopsies always came back, "large number of lymphocytes indicative of Hashimotos Thyroiditis." It seemed like everytime that I went in for a checkup, something...

    I had PTC removed four years ago and m,y serum vitamin D level was very low. Now I'm on 6,000 units a day and my level is only 30. My Endo tells me that serum levels of 50 are more than adequate, but now I wonder if a low Vit D contributes to or causes cancer, and what is the best serum level...

    Hi - I'm new here. Female, 32 years old. In 2004 I was found to have a nodule on one side of my thyroid. After an FNA, it was undetermined, so they decided to be on the safe side and remove one side of the thyroid, with a freeze biopsy of it being a benign tumor. A week later the lab results...
