Hypothyroidism, After Thyroid Removal
"I ended up with an emergency complete thyroidectomy after an ultrasound revealed the tumors ((2 in each lobe of my thyroid) had grown and were the culprit to me having to turn my head to the left to swallow food or to even drink liquid.  After years of taking levithyroxine I was put onto the brand  name Synthroid.  At worst, my levels were 86.4.  Yes, you read that correctly.  My my hair falls out in clumps, tired, exhausted, body aches and joint pain,  chronic fatigue, etc.  now my routine is to take my synthroid at bedtime with vitamin c.  I wake up fine, I&#039;m down from 325 to 181 and I feel great!  Please remember your thyroid takes weeks/months to change, you won&#039;t notice anything three days to a month into taking this"
