The doctors said her thyroid gland looked a little big and there were nodules on my mother's thyroid gland. They said on one side, the size? (I think?), of the nodules were concerning and they wanted to do a biopsy. She is a vegetarian, she eats seafood, but generally eats pretty healthy. She has been taking vitamineral green lately.
She smokes unfortunately and has smoked for a long time.
She is a good weight...possibly slightly thin, possibly vata body type. She might have a hyper active thyroid.
They are going to do the biopsy next week. I'm very concerned and nervous. The vitamineral green has seaweed in it:
- Kelp
- Dulse
- Laver
- Bladderwrack
- Alaria
- Nori
will the iodine in the seaweed help with the thyroid condition?
