Bless your soul doctor 🥲 what an amazing story! I had lymph glands swelling upper half of my neck w edema and the pressure & compression!
I cried and said "it feels like someone's hands are around your neck choking me..like chains wrapped around my neck" &
...ive NEVER SEEN something like how bad off this man that you treated! He suffered 8years!?!
All I can say is thank you for your mercy on him💓he was suffering so much. Bless you for your care for that man. I know that man is a jewel bc anyone who suffers that much sees life from a very different angle.
Yes, this patient’s case was extraordinary challenging. We partnered with the company to offer this. Patient several treatments at no cost as we wanted to help this. Very nice patient.
The lord have his angels everywhere, bless this doc and his team
Any update on this patient? Looking forward to see his progress
Yes plz update his progress also
I want to see the progress also
The success rate for knowledge reduction at our office and based on our experience is 80% plus all the way up to 100%. The smaller than nodule the higher, the reduction percentage.
First time hearing about RFA, really interesting! I hope Richard is doing great these days.
You are amazing Dr. Nikravan. 👏👏👏
Thanks! Hope you learned something from the video. Sending love!
Any updates? This makes me feel that if it can be done on him successfully, it can be successful for anyone.
Radio frequencies is designed for thyroid nodules. When the nodule becomes extremely large or it takes over the entire lobe, the reduction is lessened therefore it is important to treat early and sooner rather than waiting. This patient received substantial reduction and alleviation of the compressive symptoms, although his neck it is highly unlikely that his neck will go back to his original size
Bless Richard lord
U guys are amazing
Wow Richard I am so glad this wonderful doctor can help you. While I was watching, I was wondering if you have ever tested for low iodine?

HOW DOES HE LOOK AFTER TREATMENT
There is significant decrease in size
Hi Dr. Nikravan! Have you ever had a case where you did the RFA treatment, and the patient’s nodule turned hard. My goiter was 8cm, and now its down about half to 5cm. While I am very pleased with the superficial look, my goiter is now super hard. It hardened about a week after the procedure, and it’s been 2 years, and is still hard. I want to go in for a second procedure, but I’m a little nervous. Is the hardness normal? Please let me know. Hope to hear from you soon!
May I ask, how you are doing now? What’s the percentage of it growing back? Did they give advice on what to do or take to assist in softening it? And where did you have it done, Im in Washington, DC and am looking into this alternative to thyroid removal and haven’t been able to find a specialist for this specific procedure. Any information would be tremendously appreciated!
@@tinadevine8100 Hey. Some days it seems as if it’s growing back and some days it seems like it shrank more than half. But I guess it’s still the same size (down half). I got a consultation done at John Hopkins in Maryland, and got the procedure done in Kentucky. But check out “John Hopkins RFA Treatment” here on UA-cam and you will see the endocrinologist that offers the treatment. Haven’t been back for a second treatment yet……
I am also in DC if you happen to find someone please pass on.

Hi @KECHIAG
Can I see the result of this patient ?
Why RFA for this nodule!
He is a perfect candidate for Thyroid artery embolization.. embolize the 4 arteries of thyroid and give him hpocalcemia medications after embolization for a week .. he will loose 70% of this thyroid within 2-3 months
This option was given to the patient. He did not want his parathyroid damaged. Je did not want to go the embolization procedure based on the possible complications.
