I was diagnosed with Graves’ disease in 2018. This was medically managed and my thyroid came back into normal range in mid-late 2019.
I have been monitored and was off carbimazole from late 2020.
In March this year, I contracted Covid. Since having Covid I noticed a change in my symptoms:
Sudden weight gain around the belly
Hair loss
Skin that bruises and does not heal properly
Lack of periods
Headaches
Tiredness
mood swings.
Blood test showed my Thyroid function (tsh and t4) was within normal range but one of my adrenal (acth) hormones was well above the normal range.
Further urine, blood and saliva tests are being ordered to rule out Cushing’s. I wanted to see if anyone else on here has had a similar journey with their thyroid disease recovery.
Look forward to hearing from you soon
