does anybody else have this

Has anybody else been on synthroid for hypothyroidism for over 15 years and then suddenly become hyperthyroid?
Dosages are being decreased slowly. Bloodwork show low TSH and high normal FT4.
Could it be nodules and not over-medication. Doctor doesn.t feel anything in my neck. Any ideas?

If there is a possible thing of having nodules you need a US scan.

Actually we - all - as - hypothyroid patients should be evaluated every year or 2 - max with an ultra sound of the thyroid - just to make sure all is good.

That type of testing is very sensible.
