Hi People,

I've had some great advice and help from lots of people who are hypo but never seem to meet anyone who has Graves, let alone a fellow thyroidectomy patient. Would be great to connect and see how you are/were/hope to be!!!

I just got diagnosed with Graves Disease this AM, but I am in London. There do seem to be more hypo than hyper on here by a wide margin. Just trying to work up the stones to take carbimazole, so I am a lot newer to this than you (and have no good advice to offer!)

Hi sleepyfairy - we have a TUK support group in Bristol that you may be interested in coming to. We have several people with graves although you can't guarantee who will be there each time. Our next meeting is on 11th Jan, if you are interested. Here is a link to a blog I posted about it:
