 I have had a goiter on my thyroid for the past 6 years. It has remained small and I basically forgot about it. I am not on any thyroid meds as my thyroid levels were low-normal.

 Last April I was diagnosed with Anklyosing Spondilitis and last month with Crohns. Both auto-immune diseases. I tried Humira and Enbrel and am now on Remicade. For the last few weeks my goiter has been getting larger to where it I can now feel it in my throat especially when I eat and drink. I am scheduled for an ultra-sound next week.

Anyone have any issues with Remicade and their thyroid? I am not sure it is the Remicade that is causing the goiter to get bigger or not but I thought I'd throw it out there.

Thanks

Chris
