I'm 30. I've got hyperthyroidism. Was diagnosed in resus 4 months ago, I was losing weight massively and my hr was insane.
I've been on 60mg of carbimazole since. My t4
Went from 100 to 35, then my bloods on Wednesday showed my t4 is now 45. So it's gone up.
I've got an appointment with an endocrinologist end of June but I don't know what else they can do?
Should I ask for it to be removed?
I lost weight initially but now I feel like I'm just packing it on hand over fist, I can't tell you how much pain im in day to day with all my muscles just being so sore, I'm using a stick to get around because my legs are so weak.
Im having a bit of a pity party tonight because it's my wedding anniversary and I wouldn't have married me knowing what was going to happen.
My periods have completely stopped and they said my miscarriages (9) were all caused by my thyroid, every blood test I've had it has slowly gone up from normal to just over the range then the next one it was 100.
I just feel so let down and sad. I saw my dr and she congratulated me on losing so much weight
and previously all my symptoms were put down to being an anxious fat woman.
So should I ask for it to be removed? Any one else had a thyroidectomy or radioactive iodine ?
