Relax,breathe, be good to yourself and be patient with this diesease. While it is easy for me to say this now since I had my RAI treatment in Feb 2010 things due get better. I started replacement therapy 8 weeks after my RAI and it was tricky since it put me in a state of overactivity again by June. My meds have been revised twice now and as of October 2010 I am right where they want me to be. While everyone is not the same it will get better!!
When I think back on how I felt before my RAI treatment it was a really scary time. If anything getting this disease has taught my how precious life is and how important it is to take care of yourself. Get plenty of rest and make sure to do things that make you happy. And smile, it will get better!!
Best of luck to you with your prognosis.
