My sis was diagnosed with hypothyroidism..and it came with rheumatoid arthritis. they had to remove her entire thyroid because it was cancerous as opposed to just taking out a tiny part of it, which was the original plan. now she has to take these pills for life and sometimes they're not working well enough that she has trouble just bending her knee.
hopefully, they come up with something concrete, yeah?
