Aww Ely! I had these too. I take a beta blocker which has helped alot with the tremors. Rarely have them anymore! ” title=”Very Happy” /> Hang in there sweetie! "This too shall pass". Your in my thoughts and prayers. I’m so thankful to have this web site to turn to. People that don’t have grave’s have no idea the many aspects of it and what you go thru. Seeing other posts and reading the responses really has helped me alot. Take care of yourself!

Hi Woodley,

Wow, I’ve been having the same going on. Most of my levels are down now. My TSH is till a little low. My husband and best friend comment on how I’m "just not myself". I say and do things that are so out of character for me. My mouth runs before I can even think of what I’m going to say. Some days it sure does feel like I’m loosing it. Physically I feel so much better and have energy to do my everyday tasks now. But emotionally is a different story! I have alot of trouble focusing on what I need to get done, and forgetful also. Hard to explain it to someone who doesn’t have the gd, but my endo says it is normal, and should get better. Now that my levels are normalizing, I have to have a biopsy next week to rule out cancer of the multiple nodules on my thyroid. If cancer, I will have to have the RA done, which I truelly hope doens’t happen!! Can’t imagine going thru the physical symptoms of normalizing again.

Hang in there, I’m not there yet, but am hopeful that things will settle down soon, and I’ll feel like my old self soon. Your in my thoughts! Take care.

Welcome! I just found this web site myself a couple days ago and have been reading posts non stop it seems. I’ve learned alot more here than with my doc as well, although she did tell me alot and gave me many options. I’m very against surgery unless there’s no other way, so I opted for medication. I was so thankful to read that others have many or the same symptoms I’m suffering and am not alone in this or crazy! It’s alot to grasp at first. I had no idea how much is involved, just looking forward to better days ahead! Good luck with your decision, I would’nt be a good one to give you advise, but hope it all works out for you!

I know exactly how you feel. Just diagnosed recently myself and I have the same symptoms. I can only hope it gets better. You’ll be in my thoughts and prayers. ” title=”Smile” />

Well thanks, glad to know thats part of all this mess. It’s a big problem for me, I work as a Medical Assistant, and there’s little room for error. I have to be on my toes. I’m praying that it gets better once my levels go down.
