Hi all, Boo! I’m having some good days lately. I was officially diag.
w/GD yesterday. I’m waiting til Thanksgiving for the atomic cocktail.
My symptoms haven’t gotten much worse (shaky, itchy, heart palpitations,
shortness of breath and muscle fatigue.) I’m continuing with my life
as normal, which is VERY busy. I work full time and most of my evenings
are full with one group or another. So I seem to be surviving. Do you
all think I caught it early, or do I have a light case, or what? Should
I expect worse symptoms before my treatment? It’s likely no one knows,
but y’all are the only ones I know who’ve gone through this. My mom’s a
nurse, which is great but she’s very clinical. We’re gearing up for my
sister’s HUGE wedding in two weeks and I want to have a good time. Has
anyone had problems with drinking alcohol? (moderately, of course.) I’ve
been having slightly dry and itchy eyes (could be allergies) but after
reading the BB I thought it would be good to see my opthmologist (i’m
practically blind as it is.) They’re not sure they will give me the
referral, after all, is there really anything wrong? Just that I’ve got
Graves’, that’s all.
Thanks for being there,
going to see my shrink, glad I’ve got one,
shan
