Guest guest Posted April 12, 2002 Report Share Posted April 12, 2002 I am really having a dilemma about whether or not to have RAI. On the one hand, I've gotten so many informative, supportive emails from posters who have weighed in against RAI. Then, I have my doctor who is kind and understanding but who believes I should do RAI sooner rather than later. I am 31 and have been on Tap (5 1/2 mgs) for 6 yrs. It has controlled my GD well. I went to this dr. and expressed my concern about Tap and it's negative side effects such as causing birth defects, etc. He told me to try 2mos. off of tap which I did and I went high again. Now, I'm scheduled for RAI and am having 2nd thoughts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
