Thyroid cancer in 2005. Complete thyroidectomy followed by I131. I take synthroid daily. Neck ultrasound every six months by my endocrinologist and synthroid dose adjusted if needed. No recurrence.
My biggest problem has been fighting insurance companies, and now Medicare to stay on branded synthroid instead of being forced to the generic.
I have been ordering Synthroid® for years from a Canadian pharmacy for that very reason. There is now a program in which you can order it direct from Synthroid called SYNTHROID DELIVERS. I take .175 daily and the 90-day refills from Synthroid cost me $75. Because I take a fairly high dose, that's a pretty good price IMO and better than my insurance could do. However, $25 per 30-day supply seems kind of high if you are taking a smaller dose.
