InactiveJanuary 9, 1997 at 1:11 pmPost count: 93172I was on the net just looking around and thought I’d do a search on Graves Disease. I can’t believe what I found. This is unbelievable! I was diagnosed with Graved in March of 1996. I can’t believe all the changes I have gone through since then. I was hypo they radiated my thyroid in April and I’ve been on synthroid since then.
I am a SLUG! I have absolutely no energy. Before all this happened I had all the enthusiasm in the world — nothing could stop me. My husband does not understand even though he does try. I feel like the world is passing me by. With being tired all the time I feel like crying constantly. People don’t even have to look at me the wrong way anymore all they have to do is look at me and I break down.
About two months ago my dose was uped from .1 to .125 and I think I need another increase but trying to get into see my endo is like wanting to visit the President of the United States. I’m in a small town in PA and we only have one endo.
Well, I didn’t get in here to unload but I do feel better and I hope you do knowing that you’re NOT ALONE!

After I had the RAI and became hypo I felt even worse! I started synthroid last Feb. Am now at a .125 dose and blood work is normal but I really believe I need an increase. My doc just told me today that once you get normal reading you should really give it 3 months for your system to get use to it and then you’ll start feeling better. It’s a long process, but you WILL feel better. I understand!!!
