Medical History:
Hashimoto’s Thyrioditis diagnosed March 2001. Had enlarged
right lobe of thyriod until surgically removed. History of
hypertension and depression.
Medical History since Diagnosis:
Have symptoms of Hypothriodism that includes frequent fatigue.
No symptoms from Maltoma.
Comments:
My case was difficult to diagnose since Maltoma is hard to distinguish
between Hasimoto’s Thyrioditis. Two sets of CT and PET scans were
performed. A second opinion was obtained from the Mayo Clinic.
Radiation therapy recommended as more of a precaution.
Job/Family:
Electrical Engineer, married 11 years, have 7 year old daughter
adopted from China in 1997.
