welcome and thank you for asking! I can understand your concern regarding to your son's health! When ectopic thyroid is diagnosed, it is very important to determine it's function. If the thyroid hormones result to be within the normal ranges, it means that despite the abnormal placement it functions normally. As far as the thyroid hormones are normal, no symptoms of under active thyroid are expected. You should discuss with your treating physician and try to find another cause for his symptoms.
