Had surgery in 1979 due to enlarged nodules caused by Hashimoto's ... local surgeons kept doing tests, but the surgeons in Seattle did surgery in a few days after their examination.
Due to having worked around radiation they were not sure which it was - thyroid cancer or Hashimoto's as I had been taking Synthroid tablets for years previous to growths on the thyroid.
The surgeon had a BIG SMILE on his face when he talked with me after surgery, and all the nurses had SMILES on their faces too ..
We now celebrate Sunsets as we have seen oodles of them since 1979 !
Didn't know about the gluten free diet thought so much as changed in medical procedures/etc since 1979.
