When I was diagnosed I was drinking Soy Milk as well (Silk) I stopped immediately after being diagnosed because I did allot of reading and found that Soy can be a problem. My Endo didn’t agree but I think ?hmmm?

i Amy, I am so sorry to hear you are having such a hard time. I don’t think I can be much help to you except to let you know that you definitely are not alone!
The people on here are so kind. I hope someone can help with with some good information for you.
I am the opposite exactly of what is happening to you? Strange really, isn’t it? I have been diagnosed with Graves and have been treated with 15 mg Tapazole but I Graves disease was very resistance at accepting it until recently and now today my Labs came back showing I am Hypothyroid so I see my Endo on Friday unless he calls tomorrow? I hope you start feeling better all that I can recommended to you is that you take care of yourself and really rest when you are tired and let your family know what is going on because you will defiantly need to rest that is for sure.
Good luck getting this all straightened out on feeling better soon!
Kind regards, LillyL

I am so happy to hear that everything went okay:)
It must be so hard to ber the momma of someone with Graves or any illness for that matter. I have Graves among other auto immune diseases and I would rather have all of them than have my kids have to suffer through any of them. You must be brave for him. He needs his momma’s strength to get well and positive reiforcement will go along way. Our son had a brain tumor many years agao and and he is now almost 30 years ago and thriving. Your son will soon be well on his way too!
Take care now.

Hello all and thank you again for all your help:)

I am scheduled to see a phyciatrist? next week who will assess me I guess and then see a councellor after that I suppose but I don’t know if I should take the atidepressants I have bees perscribed by my GP Effexor or try St. Johns Wart from the helath food store. I would appreciate any input.
Thank you again and have a wonderful weekend everyone<3
