thanks, consult appt went ok, this is the place I took my Dad for over 3 years for
different cancer treatments radiation and chemo. So there is Nothing to speak of in their information other than Dr (which was nice) about the treatment.
Spooks the he– out of me, even my husband which commented when we were alone, they treat lots of people here for this, I said no, the older lady we seen was breast cancer, and the older man prostrate,,he just looked at me he said you didnt talk to them to know, and I said but I listened to how long or other little things when you go to a place as long as my dad you pick a lot up, he thought they were there for something else or like me
Will speak to my one spec that ordered this, have a appt with reg dr next week, and did not agree to have treatment, and have another appt to speak with them again towards end of month, cancer people called me today( another freaky moment) and before she got started I said I would answer any questions she had, but mine wasnt cancer it was Graves ,,,,and she had no clue.
will update again when I talk to some of drs
Oh and it wouldnt even be a cosmetic thing for me could care less

Sorry have a had a busy week, and reading and researching, going today for
consultation appt for radiation,,,,and thats what I think it will be, I abhor the thought of any radiation and cant find enough proof that it works
We in this area of Ohio are selienum defecint (sp) and know this for my
horses, but wanted to check in and update on what is going on
I also have been reading maybe too much, on antioxidant pill treatments
so many different things, and yea have caught hell forever on my smoking
I am one of the few that enjoys it I guess
Everyone have a nice day and will get back on when I can

Have been reading here, and other places, the other symptons that other people have problems with were just not for me,( I have always been a hyper type person, and since the change of meds down to this low level feel like a couch potato, I just never felt like a lot of people do) this is really aggravatting, double vision, and the swelling; weird I think that most have problems right away, or up to what 6-8 years; I went almost 30? And yes I am a smoker; for all of my adult life (I’m 59), and I am a pain, to them as I like to smoke and had no plans of quiting, but over the past couple years had cut down on my own; and everything I read says it aggravates Graves, what about the foods and supplements? How does everyone feel or use of them?
Once again thanks for the input and will continue to read
Wendy

thanks for these 2, lots to look and listen, the more I read the less I like radiation, but have always felt that way anyhow..It says that they do “Both orbits” I wonder why, for me its only the one eye that is effected? And its giving me the information to know what kind of questions to ask they are to get me a appointment to talk to the radiation dr maybe this week. I appreciate your help, and yes will keep you updated

Didnt think to add about levels, I made it such a long post, last Spec, when he had the different thyroid test done said levels were good, didnt ask; and that the other test is what showed the antibodies. And yes not familar with the term yet, will look at the ones you put. Thank you very much
