Advice with Graves Disease
Hi All - I was diagnosed with
Graves
Disease
in June 2023 and prescribed Carbimazole 20mg plus Propranolol 80mg Sustained Release. I have never actually met my endocrinologist owing to NHS strikes, so as a 60yo man I feel pretty alone with this condition as I don't know anyone else who has it.

Do I have Graves disease?
They said I have hyperthyroidism, likely caused by
Graves
disease
. I have symptoms of Thyroid Eye Disease. My results came back in range! So, do I not have
Graves
disease
after all?! After feeling like I was finally getting a handle on things, I'm now utterly lost again. What now?

What is the prognosis for someone with Graves’ disease?
Hi All, I have some questions about the prognosis for someone with
Graves
’
disease
. How would
Graves
’
disease
likely progress if solely treated using anti-thyroid medication such as Carbimazole? This is the route I am taking.

hair loss after thyroid removal?
hi all, I’m due to have my thyroid removed through surgery because of
Graves
’
disease
that is constantly relapsing and getting harder to manage. I’m getting more and more worried about the after math though.

Graves disease
Hi I have
Graves
disease
(an autoimmune disorder) and am worried I should be looking into this side of things more, when going through IVF. Has anyone else got
Graves
disease
and did you do anything differently than the 'regular' IVF patient? Thanks

Graves Disease
|He sat there and said do you know what you have wrong with you, then he told me I had
Graves
disease
. I have not been given any information, and it looks so overwhelming especially when I take my other health problems, especially with diet as I also have a stoma.

Tongue / Graves disease
Can the thyroid affect the tongue? I was borderline again last time and have a blood test end of Feb due to be discharged if ok but I think as I keep being borderline they're not sure what to do with me. As to whether my body is naturally on borderline as I don't really get many of the symptoms Mild

Is it safe to use red light / near infrared therapy if you have Graves' disease?
Hi all, First a little bit of background about me. I am 49, living in Ireland. I have Graves's disease diagnosed by an endocrinologist who did antibody test etc.. After diagnosis I underwent 18 months on Carbimazole and then came off for a couple of months but my T3 and T4 shot back up again (and TSH

Thyroid antibodies test
I have seen some posts that say antibodies test is a sign of Hashimoto's or
Graves
disease
so I am just looking for some advice and guidance as I am unsure if I have misunderstood.
