I had 2 surgeries on my thyroid to remove it. You have to follow up with your Dr. To get the right dose of medication. Sometimes it takes awhile to regulate it
20 years with out a thyroid and I feel fine without it because I certainly followed my Dr orders.

Hi. I’m Jane. May I ask where you were when you were exposed to radiation? Or other environmental exposures? I was at Fort McCellan
I currently have a radiation level of > 90% in tissues. Lots of severe allergies. Limited treatment. When I had they Thyroid surgery they sealed the incision with adhesive-glue.
I am allergic to the active ingredient. So sent me home ((3 Hour drive)). I was having issues breathing and within2 days my throat swelled shut. No airways open. Used epi 🖊
Took 7 days to get communication with the surgeon. So I guess I am really afraid to trust
I don’t know what to do. The unfortunate part is they clearly knew of the allergies and used it anyway also discharged me with the instructions to use an antibiotic that was also on my list of allergies. So any ideas?
