Jason I totally agree with you if you are a singer thats too big of a risk. I thought that would only happen possibly if they did surgical removal, not the radioactive pill kind (?)

I’m Diabetic Type 1, so they don’t want to do anything with radiation, for some reason. Anyway, I expressed my concerns to my Endocrinologist, and he said his referral went to an experienced surgeon who graduated from Harvard, and has been practicing since 1991. Hopefully, he’ll be experienced enough to leave the vocal chords & nerves alone.

‘Sup, DIY? Are you a “Do It Yourself-er”?

I’m going to a TT consult in 3 days. My main concern is losing my voice because I’m a singer.

I am looking forward to lying flat again….I’ve got goiter-related sleep apnea, so I’ve had to sleep sitting up for over a year.

Do you have any TED?
