    I know relapse is a likely outcome, so I will be asking for the antibodies test when I go for my next round of tests. Since I already had the WBC lowering side effect (and am already off the meds), I’ve been diligently researching RAI and surgery (and alternatives to help the immune system – acupuncture, diet, etc.). I’m not sure what my endo will want to do if I relapse.

    Update – My repeat CBC was in the normal range. My Endo has decided to keep me off the drugs and see if my thyroid levels remain normal (aka remission). I’ll recheck my levels in 6-8 weeks. Here’s hoping!

    Thanks for the information. I should know more next week after my next CBC. It’s been a week and so far no fever or sore throat, so who knows.
