    • Close Graves' Disease

      I was diagnosed with Graves Disease a few weeks ago. I was rushed to the hopsital with a heat rate of 170. I had extremely swollen ankles and legs. I was treated with radioactive iodine. I have to wait a couple more weeks to see if it worked. On a good day my heart rate is between 90 and 120. That is with doing nothing at all. If I decide to get up and walk around my heart rate jumps up to 150.

      Treatments

      Radioactive Iodine Working / Worked
      2 months after treatment my levels were normal. 1 week after that I dropped to a very low hypo very fast.
