Hi – You might want to try dessicated thyroid (DT) instead of the T4 only medication that endos like to prescribe. DT gives your body what your own thryoid would produce: T4, T3, T2, T1, and calcitonin. Many people feel better on DT. I am also considering surgery for my Grave’s Disease and I plan on taking DT if go through with it :” title=”Question” />
