Hi, @jmk1 - sorry to hear you are having severe gas and bloating after your thyroidectomy.

As far as finding an endocrinologist who would consider liothyronine, used for severe hypothyroidism, I'd like to invite members like @peetiepie @macierubida @michellecrcrn @darlia and @amtxo1989 to this conversation to see if they have some thoughts for you. Hoping they may also have some insights on the gas and bloating following the surgery.

Has anything helped your gastrointestinal issues thus far, @jmk1?

I live in Iowa, close to SD. I have found an AMAZING doctor in Sioux Falls SD. He participates in the studies listed in STTM (Stop the Thyroid Madness) project. I would be happy to pass along info, if you are anywhere close to that area.
