    in reply to: New GD Sufferer. Feel better when? #1061238

    Hello and you have my best wishes for feeling better quickly. My understanding is that it takes a number of months to see a difference in how you may feel. I was told that the body gets used to being Hyperthyroid and it takes it’s own sweet time becoming adjusted. Personally, I noticed feeling better within 9 months to 1 year after the Radiation Iodine Treatment. That being said though, I am still not myself after 2 years. This is probably different for each person. I do wish you a speedy recovery.

    Thank you, Bobbi, for the explanation. I suppose the best answer for someone who asks is that I am now LOW thyroid. That is plain and simple enough. There’s apparently no need to explain about having Grave’s Disease once the Radiation Iodine Treatment or surgery to remove the thyroid is completed.
