I am not sure what phase I am in with Ted but I am 2 years into it. I have hypothyroidism with Hashimoto’s and TSI antibodies. I have gone to Shiley Eye Center, I was not impressed! It is just students coming in and taking notes and they don’t really tell you anything, then the doctor comes in for a rushed visit and doesn’t really tell you anything either. I think it is because they don’t know a lot about TED and they are trying to figure it out. It is a very frustrating and debilitating disease. I am a lot better than I was two years ago but I still have problems with my eyes and they have never felt or looked the same. I still have bags under and above them. It is very frustrating and needless to say, ugly! Thyroid disease has robbed my beauty! Not that I had a whole lot of it. If you don’t have good insurance don’t waste your money, TED has to resolve on it’s own.
