Re: Welcome and a few things to tell

[Guest guest]

Thanks Jody!

As always, I really appreciate your input. Who knows? Maybe Joe will be one

of the RAI success stories?! I hope so. Don't worry, I'm watching him like

a hawk. He thinks I only ask him every day twice a day (at least!) how he's

feeling because I'm just asking -- but I'm really monitoring for hypo

symptoms!

Oh! And the books arrived today! Yay! Hopefully he'll read them too!

Hi Ann,

If his FT4 fell this quickly after RAI and they aren't seeing him for

another 8 weeks...keep those hypo symptoms handy and watch Joe, then call

for labs. His graves may have been very mild and he may descend into hypo

hell very quickly.

I had the same experience you did today, hubby had a doc appointment, and

the doctor didn't want to deal with me...hubby told him to talk to me about

everything because I would understand what was going on and tell him in

terms he could understand LOL!

Hang in there Ann, and watch him. I do hope Joe does well, 10 mcg is

a pretty low dose from others I have seen...maybe he will just make it to

euthyroid....but don't count on it. The thyroid will continue to die up to

a year and maybe longer after RAI.

I totally agree with ! We all know the kind of brain fog/memory

problems we experience with Graves. I wish I had had someone to go with me

on my early doctors visits as perhaps I would have retained more of the info

at the time.
