Nausea is my son’s #1 problem. He was misdiagnosed and treated for Chrohn’s disease for almost 3 years. After the treatments weren’t working, we did some more investigating and found out he actually has Grave’s, not Chrohn’s. He’s having a terrible time with his stomach right now and we think it’s because he’s gone into a hyper phase. We’re hoping his stomach settles down when his thyroid is gets under control.
I took him to a new doctor today and she said she usually recommends RAI to people with Grave’s because, in her opinion it’s much easier to control hypothyroidism than it is to control Grave’s. She also said it might cure his stomach issues. If his stomach gets better when his thyroid is under control, we’re going to seriously think about RAI or surgery.
I hope you feel better soon!
Amy
