Newly Diagnosed
Hi all,I've been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism this week. They don't know the root cause yet, I've to get more blood tests. I started taking Carbimazole 15mg a day on Tuesday. Since then I feel sick every time I eat, and vomited once. I was wondering if anyone else had this experience? Does it go away
