Dr. Siddiqui asks you what you think is wrong with Angela. What is your diagnosis? (Note: do not simply say hyper - or hypothyroidism; that portion of the question was already answered above.) Angela does not have a goiter at the moment. If her condition continues unchecked will she develop one? Why or why not? Make sure you include Angela's blood work results to back up your response.

    Dr. Siddiqui asks you what you think is wrong with Angela. What is your diagnosis? (Note: do not simplysay hyper - or hypothyroidism; that portion of the question was already answered above. Explain in detailwhy/how you came up with the diagnosis. Include the evidence that led you to this diagnosis.

    Judging from Angela's results, she has Serum thyroxine, Thyrotropin, and SerumTriiodothyronine hormones to be missing. This will cause Hypothyroidism results due to failure of the thyroid gland to produce sufficient hormones.

    Angela does not have a goiter at the moment. If her condition continues unchecked will she develop one? Why or why not? Make sure you include information from Angela's blood work results to back up yourresponse.

    Technically, a goiter can develop in a gland that is developing high level of hormone (hyperthyroidism), and low level of hormone (hypothyroidism), or the certain amount of hormone (euthyroidism) needed.

    In Angela's situation, her TSH concentration and thyroid hormones are at a reduced level. This will cause, the pituitary gland in the brain to produce a signal to the thyroid. Thus, her condition should be well observed all through the period till her conditions return to the way it ought to be normally.
