Hello to everyone, glad to find support group on the net!
Boy, sure have alot of questions that could use your answers!
I’ve been living with this great disease for 1 yr now and have
been on one big emotional roller coaster! Was told that I was hyper–
after having my 2nd child (developed GD during my pregnancy) lost
20 lbs fast and shook like a shaky leaf in a wind storm. ILL TEMPERED
and ready to rage out at any given time. Just turned 29 yrs old and
should have happiness but instead pure grief at times. I believe in
our Lord Jesus Christ and have depended on Him to supply my needs and
although it has been very hard–He is still here for me I know!
3 mths after RAI (low dose radioactive iodine) but just learned my new
test results show Hypo — TSH 46.0 very high (norm range .4 – 6.0)
After reading thru this BB, some of you say that the road may still be
hard ahead. Wouldn’t you think that with all of this advanced health
junk – that they would be able to regulate the hormone dosages per
person? I’ve just been prescribed the hormone Eltroxin. Now, I’m
going to have to wait and see if I will go Hyper again?!?! This is a
joke. Can someone tell me please, Does Arthritis, Diabetes, Ptosis and
Asthma have something to so with GD? (I guess I best not complain then
right?) I’m getting kinda irritable again just thinking about this!
THANKS! ANDREA
