Paula,
Thanks for the welcome to the list. I know what you
mean about feeling like you had gone off the deep
end. I felt the same way. I really thought I was
having a nervous breakdown as the symptoms kept
appearing. I was stressed out in my life already and
Graves’ just compounded everything. I almost went
to a psychologist. I am kind of glad I didn’t becuase
I may not have actually gone to a doctor then and
my hyperthyroidism may not have been found out. I
researched the breastfeeding and ATD’s quite a bit
and decided that I did not want to take ANY chances
with the meds passing through breast mile (although
I understand the risk is very small). Weaning went
very smoothly.
Good luck with your path to remission!
Kristy
