I saw a different vet for the follow up appt who was only able to offer statistics on cats regarding life after a thyroid removal and didn't suggest any medication. I think she was more of a cats and dogs vet and her job was to check the wound and stitches.

I just wondered if anybody on here has or had a hamster who had their thyroid removed and how it affected their life.

I need to get in contact with Clarissa's regular vet who knows about hamsters to sort the medical side of it.
