Sad and scared fits me perfectly. I was diagnosed with Graves Disease in April 2010 after routine bloodwork by my doctor. I then went to an Endocrinologist. After discussion we decided to watch for symptoms to develop because at the time I didn’t really have any. I also was diagnosed in Sept. 2008 with fibromyalgia which makes it harder to decide what is causing my fatigue and aches. Now my hair seems to be falling out more than normal and I feel very emotional, mostly weepy or angry.
I too have big concerns about my weight. I am one of those people that has not lost any weight being hyperthyroid and I definetely don’t want to gain any. I guess my main question is should I go on Methimazole or have the RAI and get rid of my thyroid. Any opinions would be appreciated!
