    They’re headed in the right direction, and that’s good. Symptoms can persist even after levels hit normal, so that’s not unusual. As your levels remain stable, your body will BEGIN to heal from the onslaught that is hyperthyroidism. Look for small improvements. Something that’s better today than it was yesterday. After a while, you’ll find that you’ve stopped looking because overall you feel pretty good. And one magical day, you might notice that you never even thought about Graves’ that day. It can happen! <img decoding=” title=”Very Happy” />

    Hi all. Just got off the phone with the endo’s office. I had blood drawn last week. The nurse said "oh, the dc checked off on your chart." When I asked what does that mean – she said everything’s fine or we would have called you. So when I asked for my numbers she seemed a little put out. I wasn’t about to ask for more info – thought I’d turn to my friends here. <img decoding=” title=”Smile” /> BTW, I have an appt with a new endo, but not until July. <img decoding=” title=”Sad” />

    On March 18, my TSH was .44 (.4 – 4.5 normal), T3 3.1 (2.3 – 4.2), and T4 1.08 (.4 – 4.5). On April 30 my TSH was .86, T3 2.9 and T4 1.07. I’m still trying to digest all that I’ve read, but to me that seems like OK progress. Is that right? I’m still syptomatic as far as TIRED, shaky, anxious, etc. But I want to be encouraged by these numbers, but not prematurely. <img decoding=” title=”Smile” /> Any thoughts?

    Thanks for your input.
    Emily
