Hyperthyroidism

I tried explaining to my friend Geckler what a goiter was the other day, but I had a little difficulty, which eventually led to the least appealing Google image search I've ever performed, and so I thought I would share just a few of the results with you as an early Christmas present, enjoy:

WOW - Throat testicles. How does one dress with that condition? Or breathe for that matter? Dan I love you. If I wasn't married, I'd propose immediately. You are the only other person in this world that makes me laugh as much as my husband! keep up the good work!

I guess if I had to have a goiter I'd choose one that made me look like a bull frog. Especially over the testical looking ones.

Either way, gross Dan. Very gross.

I have Grave's disease (another form of hyperthyroidism). I thankfully do NOT have throat testicles, though now I will have nightmares about them and develop a tick where I constantly reach up and touch my throat to make sure they haven't formed.

To the anonymous that offered a marriage proposal if she wasn't already married because Dan's so funny: Ummm, not in this post. You have me worried if you think this post is funny. I'll be closing my eyes everytime I scroll past these pics. The gross goiters= grou-out; not funny. Dan forgetting & wearing the same sweater two days in a row to work= hilarious.

Wow - I think I smell Jawbreaker II being released in a theatre near you...I hope Rose McGowan is in it again.

When I was a tyke, there was a substitute teacher that would circulate amongst our school district; she had a huge goiter on her neck and it was always so disturbing to see her in the building. I can't imagine having her for a sub. I think she refused to have it removed for religious reasons or something, and while you can't discriminate against someone based on their appearance, of course, I daresay she may have frightened some of the younger children with her huge goiter.

At the very least, you know she spent the first hour of every substitute teaching day telling her new class about what goiters were and why she hadn't chopped hers off.

Hi guys.......I am new on here... thought i would post a comment... I have HYPO-thyroidism, not the one posted here, but I do have goiter.. No I do not have testicles hanging from my neck, but god knows, I will have night terrrors now, and next time I am with a guy, and i feel something dangling near my chin, I will have to grab them to make sure it is not a growth protruding from my neck rather his balls.
