My dd has just turned 12. She is whippetty thin and although she is often tired, we had put that down to school pressure and also started giving her iron as she is veggie. She has On the weekend DH noticed that her neck looked swollen, I took one look and could see it was a goitre. GP Monday morning bloods just through, God I am horrified, her TSH is 68 and her T4 is 5.7 I have Hashimoto's and when my TSH was 22 I felt dire, so I feel so guilty to have missed this. We are now being referred for an urgent appointment with a paediatric endo, it could be today but will probably be Monday. I am really worried, would appreciate any advice or experience, anything we need to ask/check/have tested etc.
