I'd stick around and listen to this valuable information, but the sound is difficult to keep listening to. They sound so far away from the microphones.
Si tengo mi tiroide bien las hormonas porque tengo 3 nódulos y si los nódulos no son malignos me lo dejan ahí le agradeciera qué me contestara qué pudiera hacer gracias y si no llevo tratamiento y en estados unidos si se hacen la ablation por radio frecuencia gracias 🙏
Thank you. I'm a 22-year-old male from Morocco, diagnosed with a complex thyroid nodule. My biopsy results were classified as Bethesda 3. The doctor recommended surgery, but I don't want to go through with it and I'm unsure about my options. If anyone can offer guidance, I'd greatly appreciate it because I don't want to remove my thyroid.
A mi me dijo el doctor que se toma con un traguito de agua, tener 8 horas de ayuno y comer una hora después de que me tome la pastilla y si evitar el cafe
I would recommend people definately NOT to rush into surgery but to observe for a while until youngetnyour head around what you really decide YOU want to do. 🙏 do
Thank you Dr Akeria.. you've put my mind at rest that I am NOT crazy for following my GUT INSTINCT and observing with ultra sounds rather than having surgery. Your talk was excellent and makes toral sense. God bless you 🙏 ❤️
I pray 🙏 that all people watching this video will be safe from harm and cancer and will live long, healthy happy 😊 lives. God bless all & thank you to both these gentlemen for this video. This doctor seems very down to earth and having his patients interest at heart. Thats all we can ask. May god be with you all 🙏 🤲 ✝️ ❤
I was told I had 70% theoid cancer following FNA 4 years ago.. they wanted to operate immediately and then radio active therapy. I just couldnt do it. Inhad just.lost my mom and it was covid time. I went with my gut instinct and refused surgery for now.. doctors think I'm crazy to decline as it could spread to other areas..but i know.i will never do chemo or radio active therapy so no point in doing surgery... im going with my gut instinct for now and monitoring with ultra sound so far it hasnt grown. Im thinking of the 30% that said it may not be cancer and i want to hold onto my theoid as every cell in my body depends on the throid. I am so happy to see this video 👏 👏 I feel less alone.. commented even before I listened to it 😊 so Im going to listen now. Gos bless everyone. Pray 🙏 and believe jn the PLACEBO & Gods plan.
Hey dear how do you know you have thyroid cancer? did they perform fine needle biopsy to you? I'm scared to say but I think I have thyroid cancer also because I have symptoms and I want to confirm it but I don't like to undergo FNBiopsy is there any way aside from that to detect it? By the way try to do gluten free and strict vegan diet. I know someone shrunk her nodules by doing so, also she drinks boil Guyabano leaves before meal 3x a day for 8months straight. The Dr is surprised after she came back for check up. 10days from now I'll start to do that. Hope it helps
My calcium was 10 and PTH 96. The consultant said it was my age 😡. I have chronic arm pains , pins and needles that wake me up, I was sent for carpal tunnel surgery and the surgeon said "this is not carpal tunnel" go back to your doctor. Bone pain in my right arm is evil😢
A mi esposo le encontraron cáncer de tiroides carcinoma folicular de tiroides estadio 4,30mm ,pero no había metástasis en el otro lado de la tiroides ,ni ganglios dice el médico que estaba encapsulado no había irrigación
Mine is 4cm. I've had it for 4 yesrs ago they diagnosed it 70% cancer after a FN BIOPSY. I haven't had surgery and they think I'm nuts. I'm hoping for Placebo effect and prayer
@@sarahmurphy-nf4yl ok we are in a similar boat! What are your symptoms ? I struggle really bad in the summer. I’m also hoping towards natural healing. For me it’s the fact I’m having symptoms that are really bothering me so I’m considering surgery after a year
Hola! A mi me pasó lo mismo que a usted. Me hice hipertiroidea por exceso de medicación. Pero no le entendí al doctor, cual era el tratamiento más indicado . Ya que a mi, me tienen desde diciembre del 2022 sin levotiroxina pero no me dan nada de nada... mi medico dice que debo desintoxicarme y la última vez que me vio fue en diciembre del 2023 (a un año de la desintoxicación) y me dijo... seguis regulandote nos vemos en mayo.... pero yo sigo con todos los síntomas 🤷 Que me recomienda? Saludos!
My useless quack doctors didn't bother to tell me that I have hyperthyroidism. All they talk about is stop using salt and lose weight. They wanted me on dyalisis when my eGFR was over twenty.
I have a goiter which is 7cm in size. I am now under investigation for thyroid cancer. If it is cancer I don't think I want surgery. The thyroid is such an important gland and I would rather keep it if I can.
Hi i have been diagnosed with hypoparathyroidism is this low calcium i take adcal and calcitrol but dont feel any better my bones hurt and feel fatigued i do wounder if meds are making me worse any ideas
I wish i could get my nodule ablated and keep my thyroid, these American endricronoloist are giving me no option but full thyroidectomy with an inconclusive nodule after two biopsies 😢.
I’m surprised there wasn’t more mention of low vitamin D. My nephrologist and PCP seem to think that once my vitamin D levels are back up to a normal level, then my PTH levels will drop. Thoughts? I am 63 and have every symptom of hyperparathyroidism 😢
Keep insisting on regular blood tests to check ck your calcium and pth levels if you have the symptoms. I was in a similar position to you.... Vitamin D levels very low and told to take supplements. This eased some of the joint pain but not much. Turns out I had an adenoma on the bottom left gland and had it removed last week. Good luck.
@@jeanetteclayton3841 thank you for your advice! I’m seeing my PCP this upcoming week. My calcium levels are actually inching up. Last check they were at 9. I’m curious to see what they’ll be this time. I spent all day in bed yesterday due to severe body aches, fatigue, and that horrible burning feeling in my legs/torso. I have an order from my nephrologist for a re-check of my PTH levels and Vitamin D. Will ask for calcium from my PCP if that’s not on there, too. I just know that I have a diseased parathyroid gland (without knowing). I have a large kidney stone right now in my left kidney, CKD stage 3A on top of all of this. It’s clearer to me than it is the doctors! I’ve been getting kidney stones for 20+ years! So glad for you that they fixed your issue! Prayers for continued healing! 🙏🏼 ❤️🩹
TENGO VARIOS Y HAN CRECIDO, SI TENGO PROBLEMAS PARA TRAGAR Y TAQUICARDIA A VECES. ME HAN HECHO BIOPSIA 3 VECES Y HA SIDO NEGATIVO EL RESULTADO. GRACIAS DESDE CUBA
