🌟 Proud of all our Foster Fellows at UT Southwestern Medical Center! They’ll be presenting their projects at UTSW Internal Medicine Grand Rounds today 😊 Grant will represent Endocrinology Fellowship - we’ve seen too many people with #AdrenalInsufficiency from exogenous steroids on the endocrine service!

A hard copy version of #ThyroidRFA was delivered a few weeks ago. 📚 Forgot how good it feels to flip pages instead of staring at the screen! 📗 Let’s hope I can unplug from Epic for long enough to do some reading! 📖

As expected - GLP-1 receptor agonists did not increase risk of #thyroidcancer 🦋 Tired of the consults for “#thyroid clearance to start GLP-1 RA” - don’t do that please ❌ If, based on their medical condition, your patient needs a GLP-1 RA… then start one ✅

One more time… It’s not appropriate to prescribe thyroid hormone replacement (of any kind) to euthyroid people. It is especially not appropriate to prescribe T3 (alone or in combination) to pregnant women! 🤰 If the #thyroid is working then don’t mess with it! 🛑

Awww - it’s my #thyroid people! 🦋 Looking forward to getting all the news here since I can’t be at #AACE2025 in person this year 🌟

That shift from using radioactive iodine to anti-thyroid drugs is fascinating - & not entirely unexpected. I’ve observed similar in my #thyroid practice. I’m surprised surgery is not used more for #hyperthyroidism/#GravesDisease - it certainly feels like it! #AACE2025

Nice summary! And nice to see highlights of what I do all day 🦋 #ThermalAblation (#RFAThyroid/#MWAThyroid) is really taking off for benign #thyroidnodules ⚡️ And GLP-1 RAs aren’t causing #thyroidcancer - so I hope I finally stop getting consults asking about that❗️ #AACE2025
