hypothyroidism, after thyroid removal
"I had my thyroid out in 2000 and it is now 2008.  When I first had my thyroid out, my doctor put me on Synthyroid and would just look at the total TSH.  Then I switched Dr.'s because I felt horrible and put on so much weight to find out my T3 and Free T3 were very low.  It was possible my body was having a tough time converting T4 to T3 and the doctor switched me to Armour Thyroid and it was a life saver."
