I did take thyroid medication at one time for hypothyroidism, but when I switched doctors, my new one took me off of the prescription. Apparently, my levels are borderline...who knows anymore LOL

However, when I was going through all the testing to find out what was causing the symptoms I was having - which eventually led to the ET diagnosis - it was discovered that I have several large, non-cancerous growths on my thyroid (a goiter, basically). So far it only causes me mild discomfort (when I yawn, quite often it causes a gaggy coughing fit), so nothing is being done at this time. I was told in the future it will most likely have to be removed.
According to my Dad, goiters do run in his dad's family, among the women.
