I was at his office for a annual when he said something I laughed and he said WHoa something doesn't look right in your neck ever have a thyroid test and sure enough I had only 3months before. He felt I should get another and sent me I was told by him my levels were extremely high and should see a Endo ASAP where i was told I have Graves. Since than I have been sick up and down with levels. Vertigo for months, aniexty, depression my hair falls out it be a horrible ride . They say it all linked to my Graves Diease.

Howdy! Morris Co. here....taking an "endo break" right now......Suda was the arrogant idiot, Mintz was the passive-agressive TSH monger...Covello was worse...just met with a "with-it" internist Monday - we shall see :)))) So happy for you that you've stood up to your endo - doesn't seem like they know how to handle it :)) They'll survive and you'll keep doing great!! Hugs Carol
Hey Jules...thanks for the hug. No I havnt quit yet. I keep setting dates to quite but just cant seem to get the jam together to actually do it. Ive had so many life changes in the last few months Im not sure now is a good time. Thats probably just another excuse but...lol...thats my story and Im sticking to it. Big Hugs coming right back at ya...Kathy
Hey Jules. Thanks so much for the message and your willingness to chat. I'm hanging in there but am frustrated I'm so tired still (I never got labs done or called the endo like I said I would!) so now I'm tired from whatever is going on with my health AND emotionally tired. I just don't have the energy to deal with doctors right now, but I guess I'm going to have to! Thanks so much again and big hugs. :)
Jules from my experience from being overdosed on synthroid in my 30yrs of GD, she's right sure you feel good now but the longer you go just a little hyper will bite you in the butt after your 50. How much does she want to increase it and if its not much try it. I'm paying for what happened to me and it was after RAI not from RAI but dumb ass docs not paying attention and synthroid companies changing their compounds. Just something to think about ok. Hugs Mary
Doing ok been a cool one here in Wyo we had maybe 4 nites above 65 the rest were cool and it showed in the gardens but were have a late summer now and things are coming around but its makin me think this winter will be brutaly cold damn gotta get back to the islands can't do cold anymore. We have births, deaths all summer. A lot of my peers are starting to pass on. But we were children of the sixties live hard die young kind of the state of mind and us that didn't are certainly paying for it physically. Kyle gets to come home by the end of Oct. Can't hardly sit still in antcipation hope I see him for more than 3hrs this time. Tyler the older one is moving to VietNam to teach english he has my wandering soul told him to take me with him ya right. That's about all for my summer take care and maybe send me an email now and again. Big Hugs Jules. Mary love the new avitars

Hello I was D'X with Graves Disease (hyperthyroidism) 1/12 yrs ago. Wanted to see both ends hypo/hyper. Trying to figure out some options.
Hi I have Graves Disease it is a thyroid disease. I need to work on getting a handle on stress because it causes my levels to be out of whack.
My beloved furbaby Gia was put down in August 08. I pulled her frm the shelter she was 16 and to be put down she was in horrible shape, All she needed was some TLC and proper meds she lived 1 month shy of her 20th birthday. My vet said she wouldnt survive a few months but Gia proved that her will to live was strong she had a very good quality to the end of her years and i am greatful to have had her for the amount of time I did. I love you Gia and miss you!
