Hi
My wife removed one half of her thyroid 6 years ago. She received no medications since her values was balancing back and forth between overactive/underactive, just around the shifting point.
Now she has experienced all kinds of strange things: constipation, pain in her head, bumps on her skin, swollen lips, general fatigue etc. She visited the doctor today, and took a biopsy. She will receive more information about this in one week. She took a test recently, that showed her values to be within the normal range.
The doctors says her remaining thyroid has grown, and it is possible that it will grow more, but not absolutely sure.
Is there any way to "stop"/halt this growth naturally? I would guess that a general stress reduction will help, since we suspect a high, continual degree of stress throughout the latter years has contributed to this problem, but can she "safely" take any special supplements or eat any particular food? I.e. do something that will halt the growth, and at the same time not "push" her values into an overactive/underactive thyroid?
