I had part of my thyroid removed a few years ago due to a tumor (it was noncancerous); my father did, however, have thyroid cancer.
Two years later, after I kept complaining of tiredness and gaining 20 lbs, I was finally placed on synthyroid. I cannot lose weight. I am still very tired despite my blood work coming back "normal." I tried taking some T3 replacement, but it did nothing.
