Do autoimmune thyroiditis symptoms disappear after total thyroidectomy?

I would say that most of the symptoms of autoimmune thyroidosis will disappear after surgery with the medications such as LevoSynthroid. cmf3225 The surgery itself isn't what makes the symptoms disappear. You have symptoms because your thyroid isn't able to make the appropriate amount of the hormones that you need. A medication supplement is the only truly effective treatment.
