A related discussion,
throat was started.
Sorry I forgot to say that I also have very dry eyes and I believe that this can be a sign of thyroid problems, a eye Dr has done blood tests as well and I will be having the results for those in aprox December.

I have seen a ENT Dr about the feeling in my throat and the hoarsness, I had a barium swallow, scan and and the camera down and they can't find anything wrong only the blood test for my thyroid which was not right at first but since has settle down. I will be having another blood test in January for my thyroid and hope to let you know more then. Until then any info will help. thanks for your comments.

hoarseness ALWAYS happens to me when I am not balanced out. As a matter of fact-it is the FIRST thing I notice. No sore throat or anything just wraspy haosreness.
I've had hoarseness after my Thyroidectomy, but didn't have it before. I would have it checked by an ENT Dr.
thankyou all for your opinion's I will keep you all posted.

i had that i had multinodule thyroid all my test were normal tsh, t3 t4 . 25 years later they did a thyroid scan after multiple biopsy everything came back normal . i could not swollow any thing pills were a nightmare. They finally decided to do a total thyroidectomy and found later in the biopsy that it was cancer. Insist on thyroid scan I had cold nodules but all blood tests were normal
Hoarseness is usually not thyroid -- but can be. An ENT specialist is the best person to see about the hoarseness. Borderline thyroid labs can often be watched without treatment -- would repeat in a few months to see a trend. Also would perform thyroid ultrasound and antibodies to complete the eval.
