most excellent news re: cancer - glad you don't have that to deal with. I know the Hashi's is another issue that can complicate matters but it's manageable - I've kept mine under wraps for >11yrs w/ 50ug of Synthroid daily. Billye's right the surgeon should certainly know of good endo's to recommend - after mine, the surgeon recommended the same endo I'd been seeing for several years so it worked out very well for me.
Again, I'm glad you don't have to deal w/ the big C and welcome back to the boards.
