Good question! I all so suffer from. Hashimotoes . for 20 plus years. Its been a battle with weightloss all so.. I decided to have the sleeve done. May 26.. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will help with weightloss. I'm sure it will. Taking our medication is vital to our life and our recovery.. Ps. I would not recommend a thyroidectomy ...leads to more issues.. Sent from my LM-X420 using BariatricPal mobile app
