Welcome, Mona to our Motley bunch (speaking for myself of course)

I have Euthyroid Graves’ eye disease (so they say) and have felt as you say for almost 4 yrs now to the extent that there was no way I could work. (Was blind for a while with it too). I seem to be coming out of it now and feeling pretty good most of the time. I’m on antidepressants and seems like that is making a big difference in the overall way I feel.

Debbie,
Thank you for responding so quickly. I am currently on
0.1 mg of levoxyl. I had the symptoms of hypo but my blood
tests said I was “normal”. I have finally been able to get
out of bed in the last 5 days. I still feel fatigued and
slightly depressed. It’s difficult for me to get on a
computer but I will make every effort to check the latest.
I feel somewhat relieved that I now have people to “talk”
with. Fortunately I have a wonderful family and terrific
friends who care. But it’s nice to have people to talk
to who are actually going through the same thing. I’ll
be in touch. Take care.

If you still feel this hypothyroid after three years, you may need a
medication that contains T3. Ask your doctor if he prescribes any
thyroid preparations containing T3 and not just T4. If he doesn’t, find
a doctor who does. It’s worth a shot.
