A member asked:

One thyroid lobe was removed 7/13/12. i had visible shakiness for 2 weeks thereafter & internal shakiness since then. why am i shaking fm hypothyroidism?

Handling of tissue: Handling of the thyroid tissue, the squeezed thyroid secretions during the surgey could be the cause of tremors . The shakiness after 2 weeks if still there , I am not sure whether it is from cold intolerance from the hypothyroidism expected when you loose a considerable part of the tissue. Also need to r/o any infection at the operated site which can lead to chills/fever. Are u on thyroid med.

Adrenals: It could be your adrenals trying to compensate. You may need some armour thyroid.
