She’s the doctor that treated my hyperthyroidism and helped me conceive my only child. At the time, she worked at Boston Medical Center in Massachusetts. Thanks so much doctor Leung.
You are so lucky to have Dr. Leung . I understand clearly from listening to her . I had my thyroid removed .
Aww congratutlations! 🙊❤😍🤗i also had my daughter before i found out my thyoid was injured😥🥰😍🤗my 8ndonhas helped me sooo so much!😁🥰
@@janisazaharan9555 how do you feel now that your thyroid is removed,?
@@janisazaharan9555 hi Janisa how are you doing with your thyroid taken out.
Can you please reply I am nervous as the Dr wants to remove my right thyroid and I don't know whether it's a good idea as it's swollen. Looking forward to your reply. Thank you much appreciated.
@@pokou6051 you have one thyroid gland shaped like a butterfly. Google parathyroid which is more on each side.
A very thorough and so clear explanation of these problems!!!
She's terrific! Thank you doctor! ❤️
Excellent presentation, thank you. I have borderline hyperthyroidism and saved this presentation to review again.
I think, it would have been better to answer the questions in the end. Good lecture, very informative!
Old video but I truly appreciate this lecture. Thanks Dr. Leung. 🙏🙏🙏
Can the oncology Dept. View a case that now needs to use LENVATINIB to treat THYROIDGOBLIN MASS
Thank you so much for such an informative and easy to understand video. I’ll be making an appointment to see you very soon
Thank you very interesting and very clear!
Angela is so smart and well spoken, one of the best endocrenologists ive ever encountered
She is best doctor 😊
Enjoyed the video. I have dealt with thyroid problems for two decades. Recently a new doctor actually wants to treat it. My antibodies have always been very high but thyroglobulin is now 1332. After watching your video I have a question. I did have a CT scan on feb 3. Would the iodine in the IV still be affecting the antibodies on March 4 when I had my blood work done? Usually my antibodies are 300-400. Peroxodase 100. Peroxodase was over 200 last week.
Excellent presentation.
I find extremely annoying the background of people talking and phones ringing. I understand that might be in a busy clinical setting, however this person a doctor, from the comments, trying to educate the auditory while some of them, seems not appreciating this. However, I found this extremely educational to me as a future nurse! Great video very well presented and passionately explained, thanks!
Is annoying background noises to everyone view her video.
Excellent and informative
Thank you so much Doctor for all information about Tyroid because I have one..I learned a lot about it.
Thanks this was so helpful. Question tho why not do the protein blood test along with fna to test for cancer? If you use the blood test after surgery to monitor why not check everyone with that test prior?
Excellent instruction and great presentation. I'd love her to be my doctor.
Very good presentation. I have to be difficult, just discovered I have a partial empty sella, low tsh and t4, hyperthyroid and hypothyroid symptoms and anti thyroglobulin ab. My primary wouldn’t send me to an endocrinologist but she’s since changed her mind. I guess it can always be worse.
Can I contacting Dr.Leung? Any advice thanks I dealt with my hypothyroid and with palpitation
Dr. I'm living in Jamaica. My thyroid issues has been since 1989, had then hyperthyroidism. It disappeared. Now came back. Now test show hypothyroidism.. My left side nodule is enlarged. My now great issue is a mass in now growing fast embedded in the anterior of the chest wall.. À ct scan wat done in November. I did a needle point biopsy on in The chest and it showed endocrine. Needed more sample for more testing, The Dr tried a core needle byopsy , too much blood in the swollen area. So it was aborted. What do I do NOW. Dr. email me
I think it would be helpful to address possible causes of the problems, so that people have tools to take action themselves to mitigate the problem. Just recommending medication or surgery is too simple.
Dr. Leung do I need to have blood samples to see if I have hypo or hyperthyroidism when they biopsy my nodules recently benign. Do I need to see Endocrinologist to get 2nd opinion for the lump on my throat?
This lecture was super comprehensive! Thank you :)
Thank you for watching my videos please subscribe and hit the bell
Very informative video. My question is, what is the best diet when one have Thyroid and CKD?
I have hypothyroidism but TPO antibody test was at the lower end, does this mean I have an autoimmune problem? 🙋🏻♀️
Great video . Are there any herbs that will help with goiters . My bloodwork is always normal but I grow goiters that have been ultrasound and biopsies . How do I get to the root of the goiter. You mentioned a test that I never heard of which you take a pill. Should I get that test?
Did u ever find an answer or fix the doiters. I have hyperthyroid and nodules. And now need biopsy. It sucks
I been diagnose with hyperthyroisdism and wish for it to be removed but did not know that that pill would still be given whether it is removed or not and precinious anemia does not help.
Dr. Leung I have lump on my throat and my Doctor recommended EENT Doctor. 2017 was seen have nodules thru my MRI so got biopsy and it's benign. So I need 2nd opinion not to remove my Thyroid completely. My question is can I just have RAI treatment to shrink my nodules?
Hi Dr I have big problems thyroid no sleep no resting hole my badly sepeshale my right brain problem
Can it treated natural
Hi Ms Leung , it was very comprehensive video , Thanks a lot : ). My query is as follows : which level is more important to be considered ? TSH or T3+T4 ? as per my last week's report : My TSH is very high (43 µIU/mL) but T3(0.53 ng/mL) & T4(6.87 µg/dL) & free T4(1.03 ng/dL) are very near to range ( T4 is in Range) , i was using Eltroxin 100 mcg but after seeing TSH at 45 , doctor increased it to 150 mcg, i am facing heavy hair loss recently in last 2 months and cold sensitivity in last 1-2 weeks, i am 35 yrs male avg body build , 70kgs 173cms height
The dr said your symtoms and it's low thyroid. re listen. I took blackseed oil while I was on 45mg of compounded thyroid med and I got hyper and it really sucked. Labs tests done and went down to 30mg still too much and them 15mg of thyroid med. They didn't make a pill that size so I had to cut it in half. 15mg works for me. Go check out "Dirt Road Discussions" Guy named Danny runs it. Live Sunday and Wednesday. One day its testimonies. Best channel since sliced bread:) Ps. I took 3/4 teas twice a day of BSO faithfully. Cut back carbs and beer.
Dr Oz recommends taking some ionized salt. Smart because some people dont salt food and get enough.
This wouldn't work for me I take 2 blood pressure meds.
That explains so much my t4 levels are high so that means I have hypothyroid which my doctor never told me
Very clear explanation. Doc in my case I have this lump over 30yrs ago after having caesarian operation, doctors repeatedly check my T3 & T4 were normal, but I have this lump in my neck which I feel concerned about. Oh by the way I have congenital heart problem called coarctation of aorta, which;. Have maintenance every day for my high blood pressure.
Pls help if I can take medication for my thyroid ?
Have a lump on your thyroid?
Endocrinologist recommend from your primary doctor (health care provider).
Doctor, question. My medication brand was changed five years ago, within 30 days, I gained 15 pounds. I informed my doctor. They did not seem concerned. I have over the past five years, gone up in weight a total of 40 pounds. Unfortunately, they have told me that because of my age (I am now 60), they don’t seem to be concerned on the dose of medication I am taking. I have explained that over the last few years, my symptoms have gotten larger to the point that I have 10 of the hypothyroidism systems out of 12 listed including being tired, colder then others in the room, dry skin etc. Can you advise me on what to say to my doctor? I am going to go take my latest blood tests. Thank you.
Seems to me you need to find new doctors who will care about you enough and treat your condition accordingly!! So you won’t be left to dig in the dark for answers and treatment alone!
Drop those crappy no good doctors. Get a new one and tell your general practiontioner too. Dont focus on the weight issue focus in the symptoms to show the medication isnt working. State specifically that its clearly not working.
40 lbs is a lot of weight gain and must have cost big bucks for a new wardrobe a few times. Now you need to watch your blood sugar too! I've been there. Blackseed oil 3/4 teaspoon 2 x a day . Took 4 months or so to start getting hyperthyroid and losing weight. Caused anxiety so had labs and found out. It was quite by accident. They say it cures everything but death so I tried it. Cut out carbs like rice bread potatoes alcohol. Always have a big bowl of veggies cut up and a dip. Lots of apples and the seeds. HCQ I make myself. Find a recipe on YT. Great for the immune system.
I had other questions not asked or addressed.
I have Hashimotos and I remembered how I felt when the doctor told me it will be very hard for me to conceive but, all to the glory of GOD that after using DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on TH-cam natural infective herbal medication am a mother of four kids......
This is what I don't get about combo T4/T3 replacement: the healthy human thyroid puts out T4 at 80%, but also T3, at the remaining 20%. So when you have complete thyroidectomy... you by definition lose the 20% T3 that came from the now phantom gland. Seems like from the get-go you're at a deficit, even if you perfectly convert T4 to T3 peripherally. Anyone know why endocrine specialists like to insist on T4 mono-therapy for athyreotic patients?
can someone have more then 1 auto immune diagnosis?
Yes!! Once you have one, you're likely to have more. It's an immune response which affects the entire body.
The thyroid can affect all the symptoms of the body.
She said you dont need treatment or u wont benefit from treatment if u are close to the lower end of the range. U have to be out. Then she said even if you are out doesn’t mean you are sick. You have to almost die to be treated. Ranges are set and they differ from person to person. For example u might be on the higher end pf the range and that’s your normal, then, you go to the low end of the range, not your normal.. u will see symptoms and severe one if left for a long time. My doctor treated me based on that and my symptoms as well and i have never felt better. I lost 6 years of my life because doctors told me my tests are normal. If a doctor refuses to do any test for you it’s worth it to do it out of pocket if needed. Doctors tell us to trust in the mighty range and if you go out of the range they be like eh you off by a little dont worry.

Endocrinologist recommend from your doctor.

Hyperthyroidism
@@ayeshaogloblina2127 not necessarily.
Alot of youtube speakers pop their mouth in between sentences. They suck in air to speak and snap their mouth. They need voice coaching. She is exclusively using her head voice. The midwestern accent carries alot of tension in the face instead of anchoring the body in the heels.
Interesting! I notice voices and appreciate your info !
Main cause for hormonal imbalance is milk,. this is main reason for hormonal imbalance, i request everybody to watch Khaddar Vali videos for that.
She doesn’t know what she’s talking about! Sad!! Iodize salt lol!! Do yourself a favor and look up Dr. David Brownstein
And your field of expertise is??? Is Sad!! a medical term or just due to the limitations of your vocabulary?
Thank you monica. Will do research. Yep is true. Iodized salt is questionable. But so many options for us in healh stores.
Thanks for saying this! I've always that iodized salt was not good for you. According to the periodic table, iodized salt is NaCl ... isn't that Cl bad for you? Hey, I'm not sure, but am asking.

Dies thyroids kill
You're talking to someone who is sleeping. Repeat tomorrow
She seems a bit fake when trying to be nice
wow if she would quit smacking her lips this video would be better.
You sure zero in on the essentials. don't you?
Your mouth gets dry during long presentations,especially with air conditioning or nerves but congratulations on moaning about the absolutely free video you can access 🙄
It’s interesting to notice these things- still very good video ! I know some people have very sensitive hearing and some sounds are just really noticed .
I personally enjoy it
