"i'm living here in Philippines, does the medication for an early goiter expensive?"?

(exclusive for Filipinos only)

i don't know exactly how much it will cost, but i'm sure it will cost LESS treating it EARLY than treating it when it's already too late!

i recommend you see a doctor immediately. if finances are a problem, go to PGH. i'm sure they can help.

I don't know the price of medicines in the Philippines ...but the simple addition of iodised salt to your food will greatly help to reduce the goiter and hopefully even get rid of it. Please consult a doctor to properly treat it and to discuss options you may be able to afford.
