Perhaps they could treat you with Lugols preop. I had it for a week prior but my levels were ok as i was on methimazole too. Here is an article explaining its use in Graves patients who cannot take methimazole.

TT is the one and done treatment. Short recovery from surgery and even in the few weeks of dose adjustment for Synthroid, for most people you feel better than on methimazole. I was put on 100 micrograms synthroid by my surgeon and am on 92 now. Not much change and I am nearly five years post op. You really feel better very quickly.
