Pa and her weird assumptions
Anyway she thinks that since this one platelet count was up in range that the platelets are finally figuring themselves out as I am no longer taking
methimazole
(anti- Thyroid Medicine).

Request for thyrotoxic myopathy wisdom
I’m on betablockers and 10mg/day (at once) of
methimazole
. But aside from that, what can I do? Specifically: Diet? (Things I should avoid (gluten?) and add (protein?) Supplements? (Bee pollen?, B12? Etc?) Muscles? (Stretch? Try to work out? Rest?)

Acne and carbimazole
I first took
methimazole
to which I had a bad allergy rash all over me. So doc changed to carbimazole and lowered the dosage, supplemented with 10 days of anti allergy med. That brought down the rash but now I have a new problem; relentless and very stubborn acne.

Clinical Utility of TSH Receptor Antibodies (TRAb)
In patients on
methimazole
, a positive TRAb is helpful in suggesting that it is not yet time to stop the medication. 2.

Methimazole and Excruciating muscle/joint/nerve pain in left hip/thigh area
Began taking
Methimazole
for 4 weeks at 15 mg (doc wanted 20 mg but I insisted lower dose first). Med started working within a week and was 80% better by week 3. Now I’m on week 4, I woke up yesterday morning with pain in my left hip and thigh area. It progressed to excruciating pain by evening.

RAIU Test results
He prescribed 5mg of
methimazole
, and said that we had “caught it at a good time”. He ruled out hashimoto’s, stating that he had checked for antibodies that are specific to Graves.

When to take Thyrocsin
Before being diagnosed with that in January of this year, I had Graves and took
Methimazole
for several months last fall before my levels went back in range. Now I’m trending hypo, and my doctor suggested either taking Thyroxcin or Naturthroid to help the hair loss.

Help please! Methimazole Dose to take? - Latest labs show almost hypothryoid with T3
My Endo says she is giving me "excellent care" for my thyroid and if I have symptoms it's nothing to do with my thryoid. :( I know thyroid levels take awhile to register after dosage changes, but apparently I am responding very well to the
methimazole
. Should I take 10mg or 5 mg?

Is there any response to graves besides burn it with RAI?
I got a new Endo this is the third suppose to be best in the state, and i tel lhim that I am looking for another option besides
methimazole
that doesnt seem to be doing anything. His first response is lets burn it with RAI and then we can treat it with synthroid its so much easier?
