I am a little frustrated by the lack of concern by people who have no idea about Graves Disease. Because I have had so many doctor appointments, people at work have asked me what is wrong. I’m not looking for sympathy, but I am frustrated when I tell people that I have thyroid problems, these people tell me that “it is so common…and that it’s not a big deal…it’s easy to treat…don’t worry…” HELLO! They don’t know what WE go through! They don’t have to give up a vein every time they see a doctor, and surely these people don’t have to see a doctor ALL the time!! I am just venting my anger! I really shouldn’t let this upset me, but darn it!! I am just glad I WORK with these people. I would hate to have them be part of my personal life!! Such ingorance!!
I feel better now!!
