For kim,
In short, Grave’s disease is an autoimmune disease that leads to excessive levels of thyroid hormone released into the body. Thyroid hormone leads to symptoms of over-activity such as shaking, sweating, intolerance to heat, racing heartbeat, etc. Please check out more from an authorized source so you can get a much more in-depth idea of what the disease presents with. Important to understand is that this is an autoimmune disease, meaning the body attacks itself and subsequently this occurs. It is not ‘treatable’, as in there is a cure, but there are many medical interventions that can eliminate the problems that are associated with it.
