Nipfisher Posted January 25, 2013 Report Posted January 25, 2013 Congratulations on the baby, and quitting smoking. I believe that thyroid problems are now easily controlled with regular meds and diets.
chessy Posted January 25, 2013 Report Posted January 25, 2013 my wife had hers removed because of cancer .. she is on pills for rest of life.. she goes ever three months for blood work to regulate medication
bigbuck Posted January 25, 2013 Report Posted January 25, 2013 That must have been scary waiting for the test results. I lost a bunch of weight last year and it turned out to be the big C. For a thyroid problem, you would probably be on meds for quite a while. Dont worry about taking those pesky little pills, think of that little bundle of joy.
