Finally have another appointment at an Endocrinologist for a second opinion. This doctor was recommended by a co-worker, but I have to wait till March. My husband is getting concerned with my condition. This past weekend I had food poisoning and was sick for a good 24 hours. I’m so frustrated with this whole situation. I have read other’s posts, I would like to know what diet has been working for you. I have been trying to stick to eating chicken, turkey and fish. Staying away from anything with gluten, soy and oils ( other than coconut or olive oil). Mostly organic fruits and vegetables. If anyone has any other thoughts or advice, I would really appreciate it..

I had radioactive iodine when I was 15, now I’m 29 and thinking about children. Has anyone had radioactive iodine and gotten pregnant afterwards? Was it extremely difficult to get pregnant? All of my research has terrified me.

I was diagnosed with Graves Disease in 2021. For the last couple of weeks, I have been experiencing leg cramps and extreme fatigue. I have trouble getting up in the morning. Have anybody else experienced this?

I got diagnosed with Grave’s Disease in 2021. It took a little over 7 months to finally get the dosage right. However, now I’m considering trying to get pregnant. My doctor decided to switch my medication to Propylthiouracil just in case. The other option he suggested is radioactive iodine. Has anyone else ever been treated with these methods?

I haven’t been diagnosed with Graves but I think I may have it. Can anyone share their experiences with it?

I was recently diagnosed with subclinical hyperthyroidism/graves with a TSH dropping from 1.6 to .18 in 3 months, normal T3 T4 TSI of 18.6 . I'm experiencing many symptoms, some have subsided since I've been on propylthiouracil but they found 2 nodules on my thyroid and I've been waiting for an appt with a new Endo for months now and I'm beginning to lose hope, I know the TSI is way above normal range, but I don't know the severity of it being that my previous Endo wasn't very helpful/informative. I'm curious what everyone's numbers were and what treatment route you've taken to stabilize yourself. I want to start a family soon and I know I need to get it under control first, so I am trying to stay proactive , but it's hard when I'm unsure about everything. tyia 😁

Im 25 years old and i've recently been diagnosed with subclinical hyperthyroidism/graves and PCOS as of late last year. my fiance and I were going to start trying for a baby when I got the diagnosis' therefore putting an end to that until it's under control. I've been to 2 endos and currently waiting for an appt with a third who will hopefully take the fact I want to start trying for a child asap because I know its going to be harder for me especially with the PCOS. I guess I just want to know if anyone else struggles with both conditions and to hear your stories.. I'm beginning to lose hope and I want nothing more than to be a mother, but not at the risk of the baby.. any and all comments are welcome and encouraged.
