Born with a goiter

I've been reading some very interesting posts on here. I was born with a goiter and had surgery when I was 2 days old. Anyone else born w/ a goiter?

I was born in Florida, conceived in the North Carolina area. I am the only one that I know of that has been born with one. We were discussing goiters in my college biology class, and my instructor had never heard of it either. My mothers has stated in the past that some paperwork had come up missing in my medical records. I'm trying to get all my records now.
