Now Ive been DX’ed as severe Graves. I am lined with paper towels to help with the sweating. Oh, I dont sweat all day, the times I am not a self contained shower I have the chills. My temp is all over the place with a high of 101 degrees. I am shaking like a leaf. I bought 3 dresses today so I could change often.
The doctor said it all relates back to the hyperthyroidism. So she has suggested upping the Methazole to 20gr a day. 10 in the morning and 10 at night.
Tick tock for another 4-6 weeks…really? “My symptoms will tell them if I am improving.” What no tests along the way?
And I am close to being hospitalized. Please wait 3 more weeks…school will be out and I can be in the hospital with my son. My husband is a physician at the Keck medical center in Los Angeles. We will be one happy snuggled hospital family.
Cant wait till I improve…remember “be patient.” Ya, Im sicker than I have ever been, I need to take care of my special needs child, I have a husband that lives at the hospital and no options, and I work. Fortunately I work for myself and can act like I am working.
Question: is it true they have to get the thyroid under control before the can do the pill or surgery?
BTW….I am losing weight and I love it. Ok so I tried to find a positive. I would give anything to feel myself again.
