What is wrong with: your Thyroid? If low you will need synthroid, (thyroxine) if high you will need anti thyroid meds or radioablation. You need an internist or endocrinologist in anycase

And the problem is?: Hi. Thyroid problems come in many flavors, broadly broken down into two loose categories with other tiny ones: autoimmunity and neoplasia. Thyroid function can be above or below normal, neoplasia can be benign or malignant. How you manage your thyroid ABSOLUTELY depends on what, if anything, is wrong with it. We're not mind readers. If you give us some info, maybe we can help. And all caps?! C'mon
