I have a very large goiter; a thyroid specialist told me he sees one as large as mine once every 6 months. My grandmother also had a very large goiter. My sister also had thyroid disease. I developed chronic disease syndrome in 1981, before it had a name, and was at least once tested for autoimmune thyroiditis, which is linked to CFIDS. My T3 and T4 are always within normal bounds. I didn't respond well to the T3 medication, so I've never really been treated for thyroid disease, except for that attempt. But I have many symptoms of hypothyroid. 16 year ago |
