So about three weeks ago I was feeling horrible. I felt like all my hyper symptoms were elevated and my emotions and moods were out of control to the point where I felt like I was going insane. It was the worse feeling in the world. My eyes seem to be bothering me more then usual, but I don't have TED. They are burning, dry, puffy and I feel a bit of pain, but I do look at a computer for 8 plus hours a day between work/personal life, so I wonder sometimes if its that and not the graves. Also my hair is falling out like crazy. Its not falling out in clumps but my hair is every where. Its also very dry and brittle. My hair has always been so healthy. I ordered coconut oil off of eBay in hopes this will help the dry and brittle hair. My tongue also seems to be swelling up every once and a while and I am drinking water like a camel. I am assuming this is the after affects of the RAI. I am feeling better now and my body feels calm, BUT today I went to my Endo and she wants me to stop taking my Methimazole. So I am sure this is going to put my body back into a roller coaster ride again. I am a little freaked out about this and a little confused as to why she wants me to stop the meds so soon as my new labs show I am more hyper then prior to the RAI treatment. Unless the meds can do this or maybe I don't understand the labs as this gets very confusing. I assume this is normal process to want me to stop the Methimazole to see how my Thyroid will react.
Below are my new labs. Being that my TSH went down to 0.55 I assume this makes me more hyper. If I remember correctly a lower TSH = Hyper and a Higher TSH = Hypo. Guess I will post on some of the Thyroid boards and see what they say.
Labs on 9/20/2010 TSH 0.55 - Range 0.40-4.50T4 Free 1.1 - Range 0.8-1.8.
Labs on 7/24/2010TSH 0.71 - Range 0.40-4.50 T4 Free 1.3 - Range 0.8-1.8.
