thyroid
When I had my 3DMRA with doc Collins it picked up nodules on my thyroid. It took about 18 months before I could get a doc to get interested in working it up Finally when I saw Dr Ellis he said I should really get it checked out.
First came a thyroid biopsy which showed a large thyroid nodule with a couple of small nodules. Then a thyroid biopsy which showed the lower half of my thyroid wasn't working.(thankfully, no thyroid cancer-by this time I was scared)
Now I take Unithroid 0.075 a day. I can't say I noticed a big difference, but I do feel a little better now that I'm sleeping with the bi-pap machine(for sleep apnea)
Did you have a 3DMRA? If so did it show anything unusual on your thyroid?
Have you had an ultrasound of your thyroid?
I am just wondering if they do diagnostic tests on the thyroid when they notice blood levels are low?
