My Thyroid Removal Experience

I haven't had mine removed, but I've monitored various nodules with yearly ultrasounds, FNA biopsies for troublesome ones, and I underwent a Radiofrequency Ablation procedure on a larger nodule that was causing pressure symptoms. My Drs have always had the perspective that if your thyroid is still functioning in some capacity, to keep it and supplement with medication if needed. There's a number of options out there between no treatment and a total thyroidectomy - worth researching if your Dr thinks surgery might be a good idea. I do wonder sometimes about taking the whole thing out and getting rid of the troublemaker though.
