My mother has graves disease as well and her and I have that problem. I don't know what type of thyroid issue I have yet but I was born with a goiter and when I was 2 they removed it. In high school I couldn't help but sleep and still have sleeping issues, I've noticed that people with thyroid patients tend to sleep a lot. And this month as of 7/18 I feel like I can't breathe at all. It's hard for me to find a endrocrynologist to accept my insurance. But I thought I'd share my two cents. My mother's aunt and grand mother has diabetes & as well as my grandmother on my father's side. So my thyroid might be in a huge pickle.

But may God be with y all and yalls health.
