I am so happy to have found this sight. It feels like I am going through this all alone sometimes. I was dianosed last summer with Graves. I also found out I was pregnant at the same time. Unfortunately I lost that baby, but we have a healthy, happy 2 year old keeping me very busy right now. My symptoms were a very rapid heartbeat, easily winded and hot. Didn’t loose too much weight. I had the radioiodine treatment (is that the RAI I have been seeing?) last December and in March I really started feeling lousy. My eyesight worsened, I have double vision, I can feel the stare with my eyes, they are bulging slightly and have changed a few milimeters since March. I also have pain on both of my shins, like a bruise. It hurts pretty bad, but only if I touch it or bump it. Endo just referrerd me back to primary Dr. I also started having extreme back spasms about 1 week after radio iodine treatment. I was in tears from the pain. It would last about 7 – 8 hours, always at night. That seems to have gone away. I do sitll have back pain, but nothing like before. Is anyone else experiencing any of these problems? Does it get better? I have been on my correct dose of Synthroid for about 2 months now.
Thanks
Marcie
