Eight months ago I was diagnosed with Graves Disease! Since then
I had radiation treatment which killed off most of my thyroid. Two months
later I started synthroid .150 next month .125 next 6 weeks .112 all of
which I felt alittle hyper at times. Next 6 weeks still at .112 but lowered
the from daily to 5 days per week. (At this point I feel great) Two
weeks later I start feeling jittery and shortness of breath at times anxity all
over again!(symptoms I haven’t felt for 7 months and its back). Is this normal, or
what’s normal! I wish this ride would stop and let me off!!!
Thanks TroyBoy

I’ve been on this roller coaster ride for a long time. I still
don’t know what normal is! I hope your “ride” is a short one
and, that you don’t have to deal with the ups and downs of this
disease for much longer. Here’s hoping you get stabalized
and on the path to normal very soon
All the best,
Shannon.
