I also was diagnosed with empty sella and just got diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease. This was from a ct scan of a lump near my clavicle. No one can figure out the lump but the ct showed a "right thyroid lobe fullness" beneath the lump. My PC's office called and said to get an ultrasound of my thyroid and blood work. My THC is normal 2.4 on a range of 1-4. All my life I have been tested for thyroid because every female in my family has thyroid. But my THC has always been a 1. Does anyone have a similar diagnosis and could it be related to my empty sella? I saw a neurologist 2 years ago and he said not to worry about my empty sella! My neurosurgeon is treating a meningioma (I had Gamma surgery in 2019) and discovered it and said to watch for symptoms. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks.

@jmb73 I have a colloid cyst on brain- also high prolactin. I’ve had thyroid tests at doctor visits which are normal. I did a thyroid test through online Everlywell, which is more thorough. TSH, T3 and T4 normal but TPO is very high indicating Hashomito. Have to wait til January to see endocrinologist. Primary doctor doesn’t deal with autoimmune disorders. Any input on Hashomito would be helpful.
Can’t wait to see endocrinologist!
