Graves

Have been feeling very spaced out, as if everything is going on around me. Also been feeling quite low today. Anyone else get this? Another question has anyone tried Plantur 39 shampoo for hair falling out? It's quite pricey 🤔

I don't know anything about Graves but could it be the side effects of medication making you feel spaced out?

Not sure. Will ask GP next week when I get blood results.

Also read the patient information leaflet from your medication to see if the symptoms are listed as side effects. Propranolol can cause people to feel spaced out but it could be a side effect of other meds.

Purple: I've noticed you've been a member for a few months now but have yet to post your blood test results. It will go a long way towards helping the forum to reveal what is happening with your body. All else is guesswork and that's not very helpful for you is it? Tests should show your:

TPO antibodies

TG antibodies

TSH,

free T3,

free T4,

Folate

Ferritin

Vit D

b12

The following is a posted question for your reference showing how this should look. Read the reply also as it discusses nutrient levels and the impact they have on our ability convert our dose to T3

When you have them create a new post on the forum with your question(s).

I have no idea. All I know is in March my T4 was 32 and TSH negligible . Last blood test in June TSH was 6.2 and T4 9.7. Waiting for results on test done this week.

When you get your results please post them and don't forget the ranges. The results so far look to be going in the right direction so I hope you can feel some improvement.

Not what you're looking for?
