So i’m confused on this. Tell me what you all think. I had my rai may 22 09. Normal tsh levels of .5 in September. Started to have severe hair loss and found out i was being over treated with .75mcg of synthorid. I was concerned and had more blood done. My endo reduced my dose to .50. Still had the jitters, hair loss, weight loss and sever anxiety. I told him and he said I was still adjusting but this was 2months later. Had blood work done again still hyper at my new dose. He lowered me again…I know i shouldnt have done this but I took myself off synthoroid and levoxyl because I knew i wasnt feeling right and my hair was begining to fall out to the extent of bald spots on my temporal region. I have been off all thyroid replacement medication for a month now and my hair no longer is falling out, im not tired, im not having anxiety. I feel sooooo much better, like pre graves better. My levels are normal. I dont understand why? What is my thyroid doing? lol. I was pregnanat and Bobbi said that maybe if I had any thyroid tissue left that maybe the graves was attacking it again b/c of the antibodies with the pregnancy. Do you think this is just my body coming out of my hyper levles from being over medicated or is my thyroid working on a litttle bit of tissue that I could have retained from the RAI?? I mean I feel GREAT. I cant explain it. Im not having jaw clenching, hair loss. my bald spots are growning back in and my endo thinks im NUTS. LOL… What could I do or recommend doing to my endo to see if i have any thyroid tissue that is working properly or am i just in normal range for now and will begin to fall back hypo? I dont want to take the synth or levoxy if i dont need it. I took it the other day b/c I was like I better take this stuff and I felt awful. Wall hugging, dizzy, hyper like symptoms. Im just so confused and dont know what to think or do… Any advice would help. thanks!
