I've been suffering this thyroid problem,also known as Graves Disease, for nearly 8 years. I had been taking PTU until a month ago i received radiated iodine treatment but my disease seemd to keep exacerbating and i lost alot of weight.

I'm the opposite...my thyroid is practically dead! I have blood work about every 4 months to monitor my meds. But BONUS! I'm FINALLY able to lose weight now that I'm on meds for it!
