Thank you very much for our replies. The reason why I said that I regret having had the surgery is that now I rely on medicaments and previously I also relied on medicaments. Fair enough, now I am taking one pill daily and previously there were times where I was taking up to 9 pills daily. And the other problems that may to do with Graves (feeling hot all the time and perspirating, having anxiety all the time, being abrupt with people for no major reason, skirmishes in the heart, ect. ect.) are all persisting. Only lately did I realize that having the thyroid gland removed would not solve these aspects of Graves. Unfortunately, I had not realized it when I decided to undergo surgery. And after the surgery I developed problems with my eyes (very high pressure) and I suppose this made me feel bad and sad and if this had not happened perhaps my psychologically I might have been better.
I know that my Dr. knows what he is doing (he is one of the top in his profession). It is probably the prospect that I might spend the rest of my life trying to work out which is the correct dosage, to no avail.
Thanks again for your replies. Much appreciated.
