Re: Underactive Thyroid...

[Guest guest]

Hiya,

Just wanted to let you know that I have an underactive thyroid and just had

surgery 1 week ago. I take 2 different thyroid medications. I don't

believe the thyroid deficiency will get better with the surgery, I'll still

have to take the medications, however it's going to improve my general

health.

Blessings!
