I had Graves for about 20 yrs, and was scared of the options so stuck with PTU/ then methizmole as it didn’t have the bad residue taste. finally i found a dr that did a partial burn out around 1995, worked but then was overactive after a few years again only about 10mgs of methizmole a day. I liked how overactive made me feel, and I didn’t need to sleep much so I was hesitant to do the partial burn out.
I finally did a full burn out RAI about 3yrs ago and I highly recommend it to anyone considering the options. I like how I feel much better now, calm, relaxed, focused, no anxiety and so much healthier.
