Too Funny! I just had RAI Treatment on Tuesday and I couldn’t agree with you more!

Rhonda – I tested negative in november on an ana screen but I had a test positive prior for another antibody test I don’t have a copy of that one. Do you think I should request this before doing the RAI? I think she is basing this on the TSH, T4,enlarged thyroid and uptake 2times first one was at 90% on day two this weeks was at 78% on day 2. I do trust her diagnosis she is one of the most reputable endo’s in our area. Also I do have Pernicious anemia which is another autoimmune disease and I have read in the book "living well with graves & hyperthyroidism" that if you have this you are at risk for Graves. Has anyone heard of this?

Nancy – Thank you very much for your response. Definately makes me more comfortable with my road trip! The infant was what I was most concerned with.
I am keeping my fingers crossed that the RAI will go well and it will hopefully be an end to the long & difficult journey for a diagnosis I have been on. I am hoping that all along it was the Thyroid causing the wide range of symptoms and after treatment I will begin to feel normal again (not that I know what "normal" is anymore!).

Thank you again! Have a wonderful weekend!
