RAI 5 years ago - new tightness
hi there - I had
radioactive
iodine
to treat Graves over 5 years ago. At that time I would regularly experience tightness in my neck with mild pain ie thyroiditis.

Hot thyroid nodule on underside of the thyroid.
I would like to have
radioactive
iodine
131 treatment to kill off the nodule. Is there anyone in the community that can recommend someone or somewhere I can get this done.

Surgery? - Graves disease and thyroid nodule
Due to previous eye disease I have been advised i cannot have
radioactive
iodine
, the nodule needs to be removed regardless (a-typical) and I have been told I cannot have a partial thyroid removal due to the risks of later replases and scar tissue from multiple operations.

and historically managed symptoms with a really understanding GP who's since left.

Surgery or not.
The 2 being
radioactive
iodine
and surgery. Her opinion being surgery was the best one for my age(48) even with the risks and even with having to take a pill then forever. I was diagnosed with Graves a year ago and hospitalised with symptoms.

Iodine, anyone?
When they do a DAT scan, the isotope they use to measure the integrity of the dopaminergic system of the brain is
radioactive
Iodine
?

Levothyroxine dose ? Up or down ?
Diagnosed Graves’ disease had
Radioactive
Iodine
treatment 2012 then hypothyroidism kicked in . ( I’ve tried going private for T3 and/or T3/T4 combination but that meant long journeys and I never quite knew if I was doing the right thing as my GP wasn’t really with me on this and didn’t understand )

Radioactive iodine treatment
2 weeks ago had Thyroidectomy plus glands removed. Waiting for the RAI. Terrified of salivary gland damage. Alone not much support. Has anyone else had this one off treatment?

Problems with Teva?
I have graves disease which was treated with
radioactive
iodine
in 2013. Since then I have been taking Accord Levothyroxine with no problems. Two months ago the pharmacy gave me Teva I didn't think anything of it. Since then I have gradually become very ill.

Carbimazole and cramps
I really don't want to go down the surgery or
radioactive
iodine
route as my Endo team keep offering. Since I have not been able to get anyone from my Endo team, I have been researching the effects of PTU as I know nothing about this drug. Any advice or comments will be greatly received.
