The normal blood work. What was tested and what were results?

How was your Graves Treated & for how long. Was it medication only or was further treatment given. Was it suspected or confirmed? For example all low TSH (which is usually low when thyroid levels are high) is treated as Graves but there are other reasons to be hyper.

I thought the GP should send you for a yearly blood check with graves once levels are stable and discharged from endo, why have they left you untreated? This is on the GP - get in touch with them! :)
