Thyroidectomy: Difficult to fully understand your question. But, i think you are wondering why your weight dropped after surgery for hurthle cell adenoma. You suspect it might be the dose of the thyroid hormone and it is quite possibly the case. Make sure your endocrinologist is following your TSH level and making adjustments to rx(levothyroxine is typically used in usa).
