    I have been diagnosed with graves disease. I am on tapazol and propranolol. The endo. says once I am more balanced out I ned to have the T3 and T4 tests done. I am a single mother and a very physical career I am finding it very to to be a complete parent and be a manager on the job. I am falling behind in all areas. I’m finding this to be very depressing as I have invested so much time and energy in trying to be the best that I can. I am just becoming successful and now I feel like everything is falling apart. I have the tremmers so bad and the insomnia is so frustrating. I am having a really hard time trying to last a whole day at work. I feel so unfocussed and I feel like my memory is completely shot. Am I going to feel like this all the time?
    Any help would be great. Thanks so much.

    You are not going to lose it or go crazy! since I have been put on the Propanol 80mg., I feel so much better and my tremor is gone and I sleep better! I had RAI treatment 3 weeks ago but am still in hyper-stage! I felt like you do 3months ago! It will get better! But you should not beat yourself up because you can’t be superwoman now! How long have you been on the meds. and what dosage? Take each day as it comes and don’t wrack your brain cause your not feeling your best! 3 months ago I thought, I don’t wanna live like this forever! But it did get better and I know I’ll have more hard times coming but I’ll be ready for them! Take it a little easier on yourself! It’s o.k. not to feel the greatest and always the best! You’ll be on top again! Take care of yourself and allow yourself to NOT be the best ALL the time!
