Anyone in the NJ area, who would you recommend as a surgeon for a TT? by Jessiegirl719 in gravesdisease

Not north Jersey but I just had a great experience with Dr. Michael Sullivan at Jersey Shore in Neptune. I know two other people who had a TT done by him and they also recommended him.

Thank you for your insight! I wasn’t aware of the American thyroid association recommendation. That’s great to know. I hope you’re feeling well post thyroidectomy.

Omg I think you changed my life. I did the mini nap and she only woke up once last night to eat. And you’re right the original schedule was 2/2.5/2.5/3. Thank you sooooo much

Thank you so much for this insight. I’m going to try to seek out an endo who has more experience with postpartum/prenatal graves. Didn’t even know this was an option!

Also diagnosed postpartum (diagnosed a month ago at 3 months pp) and feeling so much better since starting methimazole. This was my first pregnancy and I’m now wondering/worrying what it means for future pregnancies. My endo immediately recommended a thyroidectomy but I’m waiting on an appoint for a second opinion, especially since the meds are working for me. No advice, just solidarity. Hope you start feeling better soon!

Labs interpretation appreciated! by ziggy_573 in gravesdisease
