I've got a 14 mm thyroid nodule in my right lobe that's grown by 2 mm over the last 1.5 years. A FNA in September 2014 showed it was an adenomatoid nodule with cystic degeneration and there was scant thick colloid in the smears. The FNAC in November 2014 showed suboptimal cellularity. I had a CT scan recently for my neck, and it came back completely normal. My thyroid tests from a few months ago were also normal. Should I consider getting another FNAC or is surgery the next step?

Question

I'm a 28-year-old woman working a desk job, and I've noticed my TSH level is at 8.67, even though my T3 and T4 are normal. I usually keep a pretty healthy lifestyleI'm vegetarian and consume a lot of milk-based products, plus I swim four days a week. Im 5 feet tall and weigh 50kgs. Recently, though, I've been off track with my diet, eating whatever whenever. I've had high TSH before but managed to lower it through lifestyle changes. Do you think adding a multivitamin could help if I focus on fixing my diet and sticking to regular exercise? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Question

I'm a 28-year-old guy managing my blood pressure with amlodipine and nebicard 2.5. Lately, I've been dealing with vertigo, and after an MRI, the neurologist said I'm fine and just gave me some spinfree tabs. He also noted that my vitamin D level is 64 nmolL and recommended a mega dose of 600,000 IU intramuscularly once a month for three months. Prior to this, I was on a 60,000 IU weekly regimen for three months, then reduced to once a month for two months. Ever since starting the 600,000 IU injections, I've been feeling like my heart's racing and I'm getting sweaty all over. Is it safe for me to continue these high-dose vitamin D injections given that I have high blood pressure and a 2mm kidney stone that I'm hoping to pass with lots of water? Just feeling a bit uneasy since my doctor is a neurologist, not a cardiologist.
