Hello everybody, i saw a new endo today and he informed me,that my flare up was not a flare up of graves.hmmm.he told me my labs were good and what i experienced was extreme emotional distress due to 4 very stressfull years of what seemed like neverending disasters in my life.he told me to keep doing what i was doing and i would be fine.i sure hope he is right and ill get back the rest of my mental functions.well we’ll see,ill give it another 6 month and see how im feeling then.but why did my primary reduce my levo back then and i started feeling better?life with graves=sometimes it kicks you in the pants and sometimes you kick it! connypie

Hello – Did the new doc give you a hard copy of your labs, so that you could see the results for yourself? And hopefully, you have results for TSH as well as T3 and T4.

Maybe checking back with your primary would be helpful. Yes, stress can absolutely cause physical issues – but with a history of Graves’, it makes sense to rule out *all* other options before writing off your symptoms!
