Can those nasty antibodies flare up for just a day or two, make us feel miserably hyper, then back off? Can stress trigger short relapses that wouldn’t show up in blood tests unless taken that exact day (when of course, the TSH wouldn’t have time to get low enough to indicate a problem)?? I wish some of the powers that be would care enough to find out, because it is nearly impossible to avoid stress. I never was a nervous person before Graves, yet now when the stress piles up I’ll have a day or two of hyperness and unpleasant anxiety.

So, EM, how does what you relayed effect those of us on anti­thyroid meds? It’s very interesting.
