Thank you so much for your feedback! It’s nice to know that during the pregnancy, you are monitored very closely. It’s also nice to know that thyroid levels can stay pretty normal throughout the pregnancy. I guess it’s easier to control when you know what you’re looking for. I just hope I have a team of doctors who are as competent and caring.
I feel much more comfortable with the idea of having a baby. I think it would be horrible for my husband and I to decide not to have a baby just because of what "might" happen. I will just have to trust that everything will be okay.
I am always afraid that I will become hyperthyroid again but I think I would be able to handle it better the next time around should it ever happen. Does anyone know the chances of falling out of remission after being hyperthyroid?
I know Graves’ is a life-long disease and I’m so glad grateful for your support. It is so hard to find people who know what I’m going through. I live in a major metropolitan area and there are no support groups anywhere near here. It’s nice to know I’m not alone.
