Hi, I am 45 years old and I am very frustrated because I was diagnosed with graves disease last year, I been in hyer medication for 3 years prior to that. In May (3 months ago) I when for the radiation pill to kill my thyroid and since then in the beginning I felt better and slowly I have become slower and slower, depress, I don't have any desire to do anything I had called my doctor many times and he send me for blood work last month my levels were at .692 and he told me to continue taking the methamizole which I haven't because everytime I take it I feel worse. I went for blood work yesterday and my levels are 28, I feel so fat I gain like 20 pounds, I wake up so tired I feel pains in my joins, hands, the pain doesn't go away. I have to take 500mg of Tylenol. I get this strong headaches. I called the doctor today and he told me to way another 4 weeks to repeat the blood work. I told him why 4 weeks. I have to continue feeling like this for 4 more weeks, he refused to put me in any kind of medication. He never talks to me, he has his nurse talking to me all the time. I don't know what to do. I am in so much pain and I feel depressed and very slow. Please help!!!l
