Possibly Graves Relapse
Hello !
My story began in 2020 with panic attacks. insomnia and anxiety, that had 0 explanations. Combined with the pandemic, I was not able to be a normal human, Couldn’t work, couldn’t live a normal live.
I had an understanding boyfriend but it was always about me, I had an problem, I had to solve it, I had no money for therapy, and I just took the guilt .
My heart was 160 while doing the dishes, I went to the cardiologist, My bloodpresaure was low. He gaved me magnesium and told me to do the FT3 and FT4 . All normal. He said, well, some people just have a higher heart rate.
2024 comes, I go to on a vacantion and I find a drink that I like in the supermarket : Spirulina drink from Innocent. Five days later , I look in the mirror and my thyro is inflamed.
I Come back home and I immediately took some bloodwork, without consulting any doctor.
Everything was out of wack. I realised It’s hyperthyroidism. I found a doctor eventually.
She gave me the pills, I remember it was a high dose (3 pills per day) She said I will get fat and I panicked a lot.
I took the pills for 1 full year, 0 side effects, I guess I was lucky. I finaly felt normal. After all these years .
I am almost 1 years off the pills, my thyroid is still inflamed.
Bloodwork was good 6 months ago but now, they are still in normal range but starting to go a bit out of normal, like limit normal range.
So I suspect a relapse.
Has anyone delt with this?
Is there a natural way I can stop this ?
My doctor says that a relapse means I have to take it out and I dont want that.
