    in reply to: Dry mouth #1178226

    2 articles I’ve read today specifically states dry mouth as a side effect of radiation to the head or neck. It does not specifically state RAI…

    My endo also says its not necessary, although most guidelines state it is.

    I’m going to ask her to do it with my next labs also

    My eye dr mentioned the same thing. For right now I’m just using the drops as well. Just a generic non preservative type like you.

    Hope someone who has had it done can chime in and let us know how it went and if they are happy with the results…

    It’s good to know we can all try to get back to our normal lives again even after being diagnosed with graves.

    I ordered some special glasses today that hopefully will protect my eyes from the wind and sun when running.

    Thanks all for your input!! Love hearing all your stories and personal experiences!,

    Much love!

    I personally would not like to see anyone leave this forum.

    I’ve had the pleasure of being helped by alot of you, and love how informed and helpful you all are.

    There should be able to have open and meaningful conversations about all subjects here. I welcome all the opinions of everyone of you. And I think since us adults can usually see and get what we need from a discussion, I don’t see the harm in discussing the pros and cons of any single treatment.

    I chose RAI, but if I were to be choosing for say my daughter for instance, I may not choose the same. I just like to be informed and this forum does a great job of it.

    Have you noticed any difference in any of your symptoms since you switched vitamins?

    Harpy,

    I too feel as though diet exacerbates or improves my symptoms.

    High saturated fat, salt, sweets all make my symptoms worse. This is just my personal experience…

    I try to eat clean whole foods and think I do seem to feel better when I do.
