Graves Disease/Hyperthyroidism and I-141 Treatment? |
In the last 2 months I found out that I have Graves Disease. I recently underwent the I-131 treatment to kill my thyroid. I missed about 12 days of work from this because it just wore me out completely. My co-worker is currently undergoing treatment for graves, and my best friend had it about 10 years ago. The radiation therapy will make you very tired as your body needs to repair itself. Also, since your thyroid is going from Hyper to Hypo, you will feel sluggish, depressed and pretty much blah until they get your replacement meds right. Well, all I know is that my father had hypothyroidism ever since he was 3. He had the surgery for it, too. My dog has Canine Hypothyroidism, as well!!!! |
