Has anybody got autoimmune thyroid disease?

[Leigh1]

My thyroid specialist told me i have autoimmune thyroid disease and my blood test for TPO result was 1404. My TSH-Receptor Ab was 5.2 and says consistent with Graves thyrotoxicosis. I am been treated with Carbimazole at the moment and just being monitored. I wondered if anyone else has this and what treatment they are getting?

Have you been told what your thyroid hormone levels are?
