Started with a painful mouth ulcer so stopped medication & waited to see my consultant for advice as I didn’t know how bad the mouth ulcer had to be, he advised me to go back

Graves for over 30 years, should I operate?

My thinking was that with age my thyroid will become less active which might lead to a time when perhaps antithyroid meds would not be needed.

Carbimazole/PTU Alert Card

https://www.btf-thyroid.org/antithyroid-drugs-alert-card I fully endorse the need for such a card. But consider it entirely wrong to rely on an informal system promoted and funded by a charity or paid for by patients. Every pack of anti-thyroid tablets should contain an Alert Card.

Phone call with doctor.

I requested the thyroid bloods be done again as they were done without warning after taking my dose of Levo, eating both breakfast and lunch and whilst taking a biotin containing supplement and he agreed, however, I'm now extremely worried, they be prescribe me an antithyroid drug such as carbimazole

Family planning and treatment options (Graves)

I don't know if I should have permeant treatment (Radioactive Iodine (RAI) or surgery) or stick to ATD (antithyroid drugs) before hand. Hospital doctor/nurse have given me a standard RAI leaflet and explained some of the pros and cons of all the options.
