Re: Buffalo hump - thick neck

[Guest guest]

I noticed today that my Adam's Apple seems enlarged. Could this

be from being hypo (too little cortisol and thyroid). It's too high

for the thyroid, and moves when I swallow so I don't think it's a

goiter. Anyway, can a goiter form in only 5 weeks of being off

cortisol and a reduced Armour dose?. I'm not sure also as it could

also just be the voice box or the muscles that stabilize it in the

throat getting bigger due to singing.

I have that. Mine enlarged a few years ago and never did go down. At first I

just thought it was another nodule. I guess it still could be but the other

ones seemed to move and this one doesn't. I haven't had it checked since I

don't have medical insurance but I am not going to worry about it either

since it isn't getting larger or anything.

Yours might be a nodule from thyroid and when you get back on meds it should

go away after a few weeks. My nodules tend to come and go...all except

whatever is on my AA.
