I had my entire thyroid removed 2 years ago. I must take a thyroid supplement every day or I will die. A good functioning thyroid is important in life. Make sure he takes care.
I found out I have hypothyroidism several years ago. I started taking medication, and within 6-8 weeks, I could not believe how much better I was. Before, I found I couldn't stay awake past 8pm, which for me (a night owl) was crazy.
My daughter and others I know have it, and they don't feel any different on medication than before! Go figure, but I sure did. Not overnight, but several weeks.
Yes, with no thyroid, you have to take medication for the rest of your life.
