Do you have a Mother and/or Grandmother with thyroid?

[foreverlostmom]

I am just curious how many have a Mother and or Grandmother that is affected with hypo/hyper?

While we are at it what about other family members?

My mother, and 2 sisters have thyroid issues. We suspect my now deceased maternal grandmother may have had it. My father was adopted so we don't know his side.

Forgot to mention I only suspect I have a thyroid condition and I suspect it strongly in my siblings as well.

My maternal grandmother was on meds for her thyroid and my Mom had part or all of her thyroid removed for non-cancerous growths and is now on thyroid meds.

My mother has graves disease and I have Hashimotos.

I have mother, father and both grandmothers. My mom is the only one that I know of with Hashimotos like me. My sister was just checked and she may have too.
When do you worry about your kids having it? Do you guys get them tested?
Can they tell? I have a 1,4 and 8 year old.
