I quit smoking in January 2018. Was diagnosed positive with thyroid antibodies. Can quitting smoking impromptu be the root cause of developing hashimoto's? The reason I say so is because my pictures before Jannot2018 had no thyroid  inflammation I mean swelling..however Feb 2018 pics show inflammation. Is Anatabine secretion associated with smoking causing hypothyroidism?How I diagnose the root cause and treat it?
