Good news! My thyroid levels are perfect for the first time since I was diagnosed with Graves! :) I also had my liver levels tested for the first time since I started the medication and they are also normal- what a relief! I decreased my methimazole about 2 1/2 weeks ago to 5mg because I had become hypothyroid (should have gone for that blood work earlier- I would have saved a lot of hair, about 10 lbs of weight gain and avoided about of month of horrible fatigue!) After about 2 weeks I have finally started to feel somewhat like myself again. The strange thing was that I initially felt worse rather than better when I decreased the meds which worried me, but I guess it was just my body reacting to all the changes (my TSH went from 22 to 1.2 in 10 days!) Just thought I would share some good news!
