Dear User
Thank you for asking on HCM.
Hyperthyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid overproduces hormones.
Initial treatment for hyperthyroidism usually is antithyroid medicine or
radioactive iodine therapy.(not in all the causes)
Can you tell me please :Did your daoughter takig Antithyroid medicine as doctore recommend her?

During and after treatment for hyperthyroreidism, you will have regular blood tests to check your levels of thyroid stimulation hormone
TSH • You will also have regular Thyroid Hormon test to check your levels of hormones called T4 and T3.
• To be sure if Your daughter have Graves Disease we must to check Antibody level called thyroid stimulating immunoglobulin (TSI)
In your daughter case we must to be sure dose of pill effectis so (These tests are a good way to know how well your treatment is working..)
My adive is to chek bood test for
• Tsh ,T3, T4 , TSI , (hormone level)
•
Ultrasound to see the thyroid structure.
• Nuclear medicine scan

Did she have red eyes? Drye eyes? Did daughter docter tell her about Grave’s disease?
