Well, it works for me. IMHO it's better balanced than synthroid.
Try out different ones for 90 days at a time and see what works for you.
I've been taking thyroid meds for 16 years, and this (or Thyrolar) has
been what's worked for ME. YMMV.

If you can avoid having the whole organ removed, that might be best but
check with your oncologist.
