I am new to the site as well, I know what you are going through. I posted asking about the pills forever and weight gain. This morning my endo told me stop the thyroid pills for a week, get more blood work then start radioiodine. I was told it was menopause for about a year until I was on the verge of insanity then was told it was graves, I have been on the thyroid pills and heart pills since October. I was hoping to go into remission, didn’t happen. The doctor said the pills are making hypo now instead of hyper. I hate the thought of pills foever, one of the people on the site posted to me that they had the treatment and didn’t gain weight. They said you just have to get the numbers right. I researched all kinds of natural remedies and websites where people claimed to have healed themselves and nothing worked. According to my doctor these people who healed themselves probably never really had Graves. It is scary. I am like you and still have a lot of questions. You are not alone.
