Hello All:
My recent FNA results indicated that a 1.2cm nodule on my left thyroid was a Goiter. I have two smaller nodules (mm) as well. My PCP wants to treat with Synthroid, 125 mg. per day. My endo just had his office call me and tell me to follow up in 6 months, no meds. So far, my blood work has been normal, but in the low end of the normal range. My sister has Hashimotos and is being treated for it. I have many of the Hashi symptoms.
I really didnt like my visit with the Endo to begin with, he outright told me that based on my blood work I do not have a thyroid condition, but he would send me for the FNA biopsy of the nodule to r/o cancer.
My PCP seems to think it is better to get me on meds to avoid the goiter growing, or to at least slow the growth.
I found this out all because I was having this pulsing/squeezing sensation in my neck and insisted on a thryoid ultrasound, which found the nodules.
My question is: Is taking Synthroid 125mg. a viable treatment option for this? I would really LOVE to feel normal again!
Thank you~
