Does anybody suffer from this? My doctor sounds a bit worried when he talks to me but when he explains the effects, i am not too worried about it.
Has this affected anybody or know anyone who suffers from it? Basically trying to find out the worst case senario with it thats all.
Thanks.

I have Graves disease and had the radioactive iodine treatment for it after twice going into a thyroid storm (thyrotoxicosis). Had T4 levels of 70+ at one stage so not nice!
For me I am dealing with thyroid related problems for close on 9 years. I am currently underactive but much imroved. Get a good endocrinologist. Make sure you have a GP who understands thyroid problems.

I read with interest the comments on graves disease My wife was very recently diagnosed with this - it took a long time to get a diagnosis. She has very little energy and I was wondering if anybody had any advice on how best to deal with this or if anybody knew of any helpful websites.
Thanks
Michael
