Update on hyperthyroidism been to see my endo

[Kirstylstocks]

I have been to see my endo he as confirmed I do have graves disease he is also going to post out all lab tests results so this explains a lot also it is my thyroid which is causing my goitre to swell he as examined my eyes and said to book appointment with my opticion. As he says my eyes are fine. And he thinks I should come out of work until my thyroid is under control as working is causing my symptoms to flare up and not helping me my levels are slowly improving but until they are improved my symptoms wont change. I'm having bloods done for my vitamin levels and checking for diabetes. X he said also that once my thyroud is removed we will see what happens and hopefully I will feel better

Has the thyroidectomy been decided on?

Yes I'm having it all removed. I'm still waiting on my first appointment regarding it being removed. Have you seen my other post about having a melt down at work? I'm going to the doctors on Tuesday to see about getting a sick note

Yes, do that. It's critical for your well-being.

Yes I saw that post. And I replied to your earlier post re thyroid storm.

Cheers and good wishes for the surgery!
