Has any one had a thyroid storm, I had one a week or so after having radioactive iodine, this was 6 years ago, I have gone down hill with my heath ever since. I have hashimotos disease, I am still considered over active, my thyroid is completely dead and I am on thyroxin 100mg and T3. I have developed terrible stomach and digestion problems, I was told by a gastro doctor last year that I have radioactive damage to my stomach
My question is, is there anyone who has had radioactive Iodine had on going stomach problems and have chronic M. E symptoms and exhaustion, I also have a fast pulse between 90/110 resting and it gets worst when I try to do anything such has hoovering, cutting the lawn, I feel like my heart is coming out of my chest, pulse rate goes up to 140/160 and on the odd occasion itsbeenmore, I now have a cleaner and someone doing the gardening. I feel like I have been robbed of my life, I have to pace what I do and I have to rest a lot, all my doctors and specialist say there is nothing they can do for me and that I have to learn to live with my limitations, I am trying to do that but I want to know if anyone else has had a thyroid storm, also has anyone had radioactive Iodine problems, such has stomach problems ?
