Re: Re: deeps87 thyroidectomomy?

Do you ever wonder if this exaggerates the fibro symtems, I have or vis

versa, I have been told No, but have not seen and Endro. which when I had my

surgery was told to keep seeing now and then, and also opthamologist for my

eyes, as to watch the muscle pressure behind the eye. My dr's will not refer me

out to these specialist which I need because of my insurance. I know even

thought they run the tsh, they do not run a full thyroid panel most times, to

expensive, and sometimes feel like my thyroid med is off. I get alot of

symptoms, and fatigue etc. can also be caused by this. I went to Boston for

operation, had a top surgeon, and he told me these 2 Physician's should be part

of my life for follow-ups. ??I also was changed from 2 mg to 150mcg after 24

yrs. and have felt different since. I have learned but did not know as I was a

kid that I had Graves disease, and would always suffer with the syptoms even

though they took the non working gland out. Any news u may

have to compare would help. thanks

I also lost my paras during my 2005 thyroidectomy. I stayed 5 days in

the hospital due to complications. Was in the hospital when I was a

child in the 60's so do know medicine has come a long way.

have a hoarse voice the rest of my life. > >
