Thyroiditis: With thyroiditis for over one year, it is time for you to see the thyroid specialist or your primary doctor. All should go well.

Not instead: Hashimoto thyroiditis, or other thyroiditis, causes high thyroid level [hyperthyroid, Graves disease], followed later by low thyroid [hypothyroid]. Levels will fluctuate and therapy needs to be adjusted accordingly.
