I've been on Carbimazole for 10 days... Still shaking with bad tremors, exhausted, high heart rate, losing weight... How long until the Carbimazole kicks in? They said in A&E it should start to make me feel better in a week? Its not happening! TIA

Wildpoppy,

I'm sorry you've had no replies. I think it will depend on how high your FT4 and FT3 are and how much Carbimazole you have been prescribed. Please feel free to repost your question perhaps including a little more detail and hopefully hyperthyroid members will reply.
