    in reply to: TT or RAI!?! #1073571

    Thank you for posting! Thank you for reminding me it’s not my thyroid, Sometimes it is just easier to think of it that way. I was taking methimazole, right now I am off of it until the RAIU Scan.

    Neither of my doctors has informed me that ADTs were a long term treatment. They explained that the end result of Graves diseases would be the thyroid “burning out” and I would end up being hypothyroid anyway. He told me to go ahead and either have a RAI or a TT so that I wouldn’t have to endure the symptoms. My doctor is recommending the RAI.I am not sure if it would be better to see an endocrinologist at this point.
