Hashimoto's/Hypothyroidism

[HeatherC]

Does having nodules produce any thyroid symptoms, in your opinion? I was told no by my doctor. I have five, and two are relatively large.

All my thyroid numbers are normal, despite feeling so off. My antibodies were high but are back in the normal range now.

It can. I was originally hyperthyroid and always felt edgy and jumpy. Did you ask them to do a complete thyroid panel, not just TSH? I would push for that and ask to be referred to an endocrinologist instead of a general practitioner if that is who you are seeing now. Best of luck to you!

Of course it can. Get thee to an endocrinologist. If I had waited, I'd be gone (but my numbers when they finally tested were off the charts). DOn't wait to be monitored correctly.

My Hashimoto's is well managed.

I've checked our state's guidelines for getting a vaccine. I have no other health issues and am in my early 50s.

According to one 'where are you in the vaccine line' test, I am waaaaay in the back of the line.

I'll continue with precautions. And as more people start getting out because they're vaccinated, I'll become even more cautious until I can get a vaccine.

I also live in an area with a big population that increasingly thinks the virus is a hoax.

I ordered n95 masks today for the first time so that I can double mask.

I wonder if that changes for those of us that have crossed into the cancer zone, I've also read that hypothyroid patients fare poorly with COVID.
