A member asked:
I'm wondering are hashimoto's disease and multinodular goiter linked together?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
They Can Be!: Whenever the thyroid is under an autoimmune attack, the possibility of developing a multinodular goiter is significantly increased. Whether the goiter and nodules are from Hashimoto's or not, they need to be addressed and appropriately treated.

Nope: Hi. No, not the least bit linked. Hash glands can feel lumpy, however, like an MNG.
