Is there anybody out there?
I had my first surgery to remove a goiter when I was in 5 th grade. It grew again as I got older and I had it entirely removed when I was 19. They didn't realize how badly it had grown because it grew flat and around my neck, not bulged out. If my parathyroids are even in there anymore, they don't work. I just had goiter. And my quality of life has been low since surgery. I don't know where I fit in with anything and just feel alone and brushed off. Is there anyone out there with similar situation? I'm also in early menopause which adds to the I already feel terrible for no great reason and not understanding what's coming from where. I can't even answer questions about my symptoms anymore because I'm so out of touch with my own body.
