I had my TT 8 days ago and recovery is going well, starting to be able to move around in my daily routine again. I’ve been on 75mg of levothyroxine and I was wondering how long it took for people to start to feel a little more normal? When does the energy come back? I feel my heartrate is significantly improved which has been amazing but I don’t necessarily feel that instant energy that people feel after their surgery. I want to get back into working out (wasn’t allowed to for years because of my heartrate) and I’m a little worried because I still feel run down and tired..

I (28F) was diagnosed in 2021 and have gone into remission twice and now back on carbimazole 15mg. Current flare up has lasted over a year, endo says my hormone levels look normal at the moment but antibodies are still up there. For the last 6 months he’s been politely pushing for me to get a TT, especially if I plan to have children in the future due to how long graves has been active for me and how many times it’s come back, he says the chances of it flaring up again during pregnancy are high. Despite my hormone levels being normal, I feel like absolute trash every day and mornings are especially hard. I struggle to get to sleep but if I don’t get 10 hours of sleep it’s near impossible to get out of bed. Wondering if TT would help with my energy even if my hormone levels look fine? Anyone have any similar experience?
