You go! I don’t know that there is anything "normal" dealing with this, from my diagnosis in 2001 to RAI treatment was 3 weeks. The doctor would only tell my that A) I should have been fired from my job a long time ago and I was lucky to still be alive and C) I had enough T4 in my system for 6 normal people.

Your legs will get better, don’t stop walking!. Make sure you have a bone density scan now and in a year to make sure you don’t need prescription doses of calcium to save bones and teeth. I went undiagnosed for over 10 years and had lots of damage as a result.

I don’t know that I "dumped" after RAI, but it took nearly 6 months for me to convert to "low".

Happy Thanksgiving, you are in my prayers.

PS, Tell your family they will survive this too!
