      I was just diagnosed with this and the options, for treatment, I am not really crazy about. I am going to get a second opinion but in the meantime I am going to pick up some supps that may be helpful. I have lost 15 pounds in a short time, mose of which is muscle, and it is a bummer. Anyone else have this and what did you do about it?

      I know very little about it. A couple of friends had it 1 had a chemical ablation to destroy the thyroid the other had 1/2 the thyroid taken out. Both are now on thyroid med for the rest of there life. I am too and once they get the levels right it is ok.
      Baby prayers to you. When my thyroid was bouncing around with my goiter I would rage for no reason. Please tell your family it may happen and don't take it personal

      The weird thing is that I was hashimotos 8 years ago but I didnt take meds. I got it leveled on my own... This is def worse then how I felt with that. Doc wants to do the radioiodine ablation and I am not liking that at all. I think Id rather have it removed and either way I will be taking meds for my rest of life

      The ablation is less invasive than surgery. The main thin is have it done before you have a thyroid storm. That is bad very bad

      Only you can decide what is best. It is better to do it before you have a thyroid storm. Maybe you should look it up.

      My dad had a portion of his thyroid taken out and he is 100% now and has been since the 90s.

      Update... Well I am now 30lbs down, and very weak. Just starting to get back in the gym, and I can barely put any weigh on the machine. I expected this so I am going to be patient, and that's not easy. I decided to try anti-thyroid meds instead of the other options. So far the med has stopped the a-fib, and hand tremors have calmed down a lot. Keeping my fingers crossed that this med continues to help me get back to normal.

      Sorry Baby, just keep plugging away. You are tough and will not just give up so I expect you to maximize what you can do and report back to us with positive results. Good vibes coming your way.
