I've had this sore wound on my back for over 3 years that just won't heal. My homeo doctor recommended minor surgery to remove it, but I'm wondering if there are other treatment options without going under the knife. My blood sugar is around 300 - does that affect the healing? If surgery is really the only way, which specialist should I see for this?

Is coffee bad for hypothyroidism?

Research shows that levothyroxine absorption is decreased if coffee is consumed within an hour of taking it. Hence, it is suggestable to wait at least 60 minutes after taking the levothyroxine to drink your coffee.
