RAI now I feel hyper again
Posted , 5 users are following.
I had my RAI treatment on 25th October, and restarted my Carbimazole a week ago. I really feel more hyper than I did before the treatment. Over the months of taking Carbimazole I began to feel better, but now all the symptoms seem to be coming back.
Is this correct, I've read that sometimes the symptoms get worse, but I'm begining to wonder when I will feel better.

When I had RAI I stopped the Carb 2 weeks before and didn't take any afterwards, only Steroids in case of eye problems.
Are you sure you are getting Hyper symptons ? both Hyper and Hypo can be the same, especially increased heart rate, tiredness and no temp control.
Within a couple of weeks of the RAI I was very Hypo and have been since, now on Thyroxine.
Do you have a follow up appt with your Endo for around 6 weeks ? you will need to have bloods done to see what your levels are.

I was interesting to read you went back on Carbimazole, I am being treated by the Oxford Centre at the **** Hospital.
I understood that there is a possibility that as the RAI works it can release stored thyroxine, hence why the put you back on the carbimazole until the follow up blood test and hospital appointment.
After I first posted I am feeling much calmer now so maybe something is happing to the thyroid, I understand that it can take different times for different people and what they are being treated for. Mine is a toxic multi nodula goitre and hyperthyroidism.
