@ThyCaInc A4. Depends on how aggressive the tumor. Generally a lower tsh for a more aggressive or recurrent tumor. Also depends on how long the patient has been stable. #AHNSChat

@ThyCaInc A2. Hemi versus partial thyroidectomy depends on many factors. Some patients with partial thyroidectomy can go for many many years before needing thyroid hormone. #AHNSChat

@ThyCaInc T4 is very beautifully converted in the body to the more active t3. The body converts this process much better than doctors can when they give t 3 in pills. T4 in pills works very well when we give it. #AHNSChat

@ThyCaInc A1. Levothyroxine is t4 and the most commonly used. T3 is liothyronine. This is not used very often. #AHNSchat
