I just wanted to put in my two cents for the whole “Had Enough” debacle. I think that this person was EXTREMELY lucky and got diagnosed with Graves in the early stages before they got any symptoms! Hopefully, they caught it time and with treatment they won’t ever have any symptoms.
I guess “Had Enough” didn’t realize how many of us didn’t get early diagnosis and that we got really bad before the doctors finally caught on what it was. As Graves mimics lots of other diseases it can be hard to catch. The only reason I found out about it was because of my goiter.
I think everybody did a great job of responding and they shouldn’t take “Had Enough’s” tirade personally. “Had Enough” really didn’t understand what he/she could have been going through.
