I was diagnosed with a multinodular goiter three years ago and now it's gotten bigger I'm having trouble swallowing. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? I've also gained weight because of hypothyroidism and I'm worried about how this is affecting me. What are my options?

Whats the best medication to help bring down high triglyceride levels if theyre over 800? I also have type 2 diabetes. What would you suggest I do?

For high triglycerides above 800 and type 2 diabetes, I recommend starting with a combination of Fenofibrate (Tricor) 145mg once daily and Atorvastatin (Lipitor) 40mg once daily. These medications are effective in lowering triglyceride levels and managing cholesterol in patients with diabetes. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet and regular exercise are also important in managing these conditions.
