Avatar m tn There are natural supplements that can help keep the symptoms to a minimum, or help achieve remission but not cure it. Once you have graves you will always have it, but I highly believe supplements and diet can lead to long term remissionion, especially if you have a mild case. Research the effects of L-canrnitine, and lemon balm for hyper. The results are pretty good. As an aside, please don't throw aside conventional medicine, it has it's benefits.

Avatar n tn I have had steroids for my eyes and and tapazole nothing has worked. I have toxic nodoles along with Graves disease. I have changed my diet and tried different things what do you suggest. I'm not sleeping, I have gained most of my weight back with increased heart beat. What can I do.
Avatar m tn How were you treated for Graves Disease? Are you now hypo? Are you on thyroid replacement hormones? If so, which ones, what dosage and for how long have you been on it? It's possible that you need to increase your med dosage, if you aren't losing weight. Typically, when thyroid hormone levels are adequate weight will come off. If you have current labs you could post, that would be helpful for us.
Avatar f tn I've just been diagnosed with Graves' Disease. I have autoimmune thyroid disease that has changed from being primary Hashimoto's thyroiditis to Graves's Disease. I was diagnosed in 1997 with Fibromyalgia. I also have severe osteoarthritis, especially in both hands. What am I doing wrong? The doctor told me I'm a very strange case. What's that mean?

Avatar n tn If you don't mind. I see you posts starts out as Graves Disease and you are looking for a surgeon? While I would have to do some checking around on this can you post the reason for the removal? - Is it for Graves disease?
Avatar m tn No, methimazole can't cure Graves Disease; nothing can. Once you have it, you have it for life, even if you have your thyroid removed or it goes into remission.
Avatar f tn Would having your thryoid taken out be a cure for the disease and less need to take the meds This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/262791'>methimazole 10 mg. for 3 wks. but thyroid levels still high</a>.
415642 tn?1207784582 To answer your question, no, the anti thyroid meds will not cure Graves Eye Disease. While the two conditions often occur together, they are caused by two different sets of antibodies. That is, the antibodies attacking your thyroid causing it to overproduce thyroid hormones (and your Graves diagnosis) are different from the antibodies attacking your eyes. The anti thyroid drugs don't treat the antibodies in either case, they cause your thyroid to stop producing so much hormone.

199177 tn?1490498534 My husband was diagnosed with graves disease this last week .He sees the endocrinologist Monday is there anybody that can help me understand this and are the partiular questions he needs to be asking the doctor .
Avatar n tn I have been going to an Endocrinologist for almost 1 year. He has done several ultrasounds showing that I have 5 tumors on my thyroid. I have a biopsy which showed they were benign. I recently had another ultrasound which showed one of the tumors had shrunk but another one appeared.
Avatar f tn Graves Disease is an Autoimmune Disease and usually when one autoimmune disease is found, there is usually a 2nd one found (this one being Diabetes). The Graves and Hyperthyroidism can be treated by either anti-thyroid meds or pernmanant treatment which will eventually stablaise the Diabetes although this is extremely hard if the Diabetes has been undetected for a long time. And something to watch for is ...Metformin can interefer with thyroid medications.
Avatar n tn There are also herbs that help the symptoms of Graves disease. I am not sure that they cure it. Also, try to do things that relieve stress. Every web site I read talks about yoga.Also one web site talked about keeping your throat covered when you go out in the cold. It was a Chinese medicine web site. It also said that we don't get enough of oxygen because of the way we breathe. I guess that is why yoga is suggested. It suggested to practice deep breathing.
Avatar m tn Graves Disease is an autoimmune disease where the Graves Disease antibodies attack the persons thyroid causing hyperthyroidism (levels of FT3, FT4 too high and TSH too low. Left untreated it can be very dangerous. Get your Sister to see an Endocrinologist but in the meantime whilst waiting for an appointment, get her to her local Doctor to start treatment of anti-thyroid medications.
877337 tn?1249844450 My husband and I are trying to loose weight. I have Graves and am struggling. We have reduced our portions, gone on a low-fat, low-carb diet. We have switched to whole grains/wheat and drinking water or green tea. I may have lost a pound or two but thats it. Do you have any suggestions? We are genuinely trying. Can somebody suggest a diet plan or site that might help? Thanks for your time.
710534 tn?1264352757 I had a subtotal thyroidectomy at age 12, and there was no change in the Graves' Eye Disease. I've been euthyroid since age 17, when what was left of my thyroid settled itself into a normal pattern. This year (age 60), I had orbital decompression surgery, with very good results. My eyes look and feel "normal" (whatever THAT is), and the surgery itself went very well, with a fairly brief recovery period and little discomfort.
Avatar f tn Hello Everyone with Thyroid !!!!! Just had my blood work done an here it is. TSH 0.56 Lab Range ( 0.34-5.60 ) FT4 is 0.63 Lab Range ( 0.58-1.64 ) TOTAL T3 is 1.2 Lab Range ( 0.9-2.1 ) Needless to say, I FEEL GOOD. I now know what other thyroid patients meant when they would say after gtting well again, that it was like an out of body ordeal. With each passing day, I feel like ME Again. I can not say THANK YOU ENOUGH.
