Hi Chrissy,

Are you sure your not over medicated? High cortisol and low iron can make some

people feel hyperT with a rapid heart rate. If you rule those out, it is more

likely to be Hashitoxicosis where high spurts of thyroid hormone are discharged

randomly and can last for months. This normally happens when the thyroid is

burning-out from the Hashi damage. Normally when this happens you have a high

FT3 level as well. There are a few people who do go from hypoT to hyperT,

however, almost always a Graves' person will go from Graves' to Hashis. What

are your current lab levels? Do you have any nodules? Nodules can sometimes

cause hyperness much like T3 toxicosis or Hashitoxicosis. Many of the symptoms

are similar in Graves' and Hashitoxicosis, so testing is very important to know

which is happening. Besides TSH, FT3, FT4, RT3, TPOab and TGab ask for TSI and

TBII or TRab.

Best,

~Bj

Yes, I have both, clinically diagnosed from blood work, not simply 'hypo' and 'hyper'. You can become hyper from meds, but it will not make it Graves. That is a specific blood test that is used to diagnose it. You CAN have both! in TNTo: Thyroiditis Sent: Mon, March 7, 2011 3:53:04 PMSubject: Re: can hashimoto's turn into graves disease?

You need to get to your doctor ASAP with that high of heart rate.

You, also, need the appropriate testing - FT3, FT4, RT3, TPOab, TGab, TSI and

TBII.

My daughter has both Hashis and Graves'. The TSI/TBII tests will rule in or out

Graves'; a Graves' Dx is having TSI of over 130 although most Graves' patients

have TSI of 200-500.

It can be comlicated as Graves' patients often have TPO/TGabs and Hashis

patients can sometimes have the TSH Receptor Antibodies, too. (TSI/TBII tests

the multifaceted (sub-types) TSH Receptor antibodies.)

Good luck,
