Hi!
Hypothyroidism runs in my family. My dad's doc found nodules on his thyroid gland and they were surgically removed to rule out anything cancerous. From what I understand, they are usually harmless like colon polyps. My dad never did have to take synthroid as his bloodwork came back in the normal range. I used to have to take the synthroid (lowest available dosage daily) but I started getting heart palpatations so I discontinued the med and my bloodwork since has been borderline normal.
Good luck!
Colleen
